Heard the first gobble of the day around 10:30. Killed him at 11:30

Congrats on the kills and there ain’t no shortage of woodpeckers

He must be on Ozempic

Congratulations!!

Mine are burning it up off the roost, then hush as soon as they hit the ground. I’ve heard 11 different birds the past 2 mornings.

That’ll make it hard to take a break

Called one in and a buddy of mine missed,I killed a two year old 20 minutes later and he missed the other bird as he was running away,my friend wasn’t having a good day.

He might need to practice some

Congrats Killers

We had a great hunt minus the ending. Took my older son on youth hunt because younger son was at at math competition ( he finished second in the region and yes 1st place was an asian kid lol) Anyway, we heard a bunch of birds and worked 6 in real close. Off the roost 3 came up but stayed over the lip. We got in too close and didnt pick the best tree. Those 3 never would look over the lip but gobbled like crazy for a couple hours. Thwy were 25 yards away for at least 1/2 an hour. About 7 am we saw a strutter out at about 80 yards with a hen. He wouldnt budge. But gobbled and put on a show from 7 until 8. All while the other birds were on top of us. Then I heard a bird gobnle down the road and had my son spin on the tree. I could see the bird come up the road strutting. He got about 40 steps out and started looking. I told my son to take him. He missed. I think the strain of having the gun up for almost 2 hours and shifting around with all the directions of where to point got to him. He then said he had to pee and stood up and a 6th bird gobbled from the other hillside about 40 yards away. We sat back down and that bird walked right past us at 30 yards. We could hear him walking but he never stuck his head up so he could get a clear shot.

Lots of excitement and he learned a lot about gun placement, but in the end I should have let that bird get 10 more yards. We were just set up wrong for him and I was afraid he would see us.

Nah he’s a killer,got impatient on the first one and the second one was running through the woods so can’t really say that one was on him
