Today's bird makes 5* years in a row I have killed one on my birthday hunt. The * is because last year's bird was one day before (technically my birthday hunt) because I went to visit my mother on Mother's Day instead of hunting. This turkey gobbled like wild in the thick fog this morning out in a pasture. Took him about an hour to lose patience and come over to the edge of the pasture and look for the hen that had shut up on him. The little .410 ate him up at about 25 yards. Blessed beyond measure to get this bird! Really helps to ease the pain of this year with some misses and a new job keeping me from going as much as I usually do.

Congrats! You are always hard on those late season TN birds.

Congrats. Showed this to Sis, she thought you sounded plumb pitiful, not ever getting to hunt and all.

Nice. I'm somewhat jealous of you guys that are still hunting but I sure did enjoy sleeping in this past weekend too. Congrats on the kill.

Happy birthday! And congrats on the gobbler.
Happy birthday to you too Mike. It's my birthday today too. I've been setting beaver traps wishing I was somewhere cool chasing a gobbler.

Way to go, Jug. And happy birthday. For y'all that don't know this guy, he's a great American and a natural born killer.

Congrats Chad.
My grandpa had an uncanny knack for killing a deer every year on his birthday in late Jan. Isn't this several years in a row getting a birthday Gobbler?

Congrats Chad.
My grandpa had an uncanny knack for killing a deer every year on his birthday in late Jan. Isn't this several years in a row getting a birthday Gobbler? Thanks bro! That is really cool about your grandpa! I had originally put in my post that it was 6 years in a row now but I was wrong. I looked back at my turkey kill spreadsheet and one of the kills (2012, which I also thought was on my bday) with BrentM beside me was actually on May 5. It has actually been 5 years in a row now starting in 2013, with BrentM calling up the 2014 bird for me. Had it not been for two peculiar situation misses this year, he would have been my 42nd gobbler on my 42nd birthday. Instead, he was number 40.
