One came a long, long way in a hurry. But he wouldn’t come the last 75 yards. Anyway, that was pretty fun in its own right. We’re walking up out of the hole we’d climbed down into, almost back to the logging road, when a bird gobbles at us walking in the dry leaves. He’s no more than 25 yards away. The kind of gobble that will blow your hat off. This should be quick, I think. He will peek over the edge and one of us will shoot him in the face. About that time, AMB’s gun goes boom. But the shot is kind of muffled from where I’m sitting. Nothing is ever straightforward with turkeys. That joker had swung around behind us. AMB caught a glimpse and was able to lean around the tree, shoot through a wad of grape vines and kill that rascal. It was a strange hunt all the way around but a ton of action. Walked nearly 2-1/2 miles. I’m tired. I know that’s not a lot but I been lounging for 2 months with this back and it’s about all I had. Almost forgot to mention. The gobbler had 2 beards. The sun shining on its feathers sure was pretty. “Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.” On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

It's amazing how they can have all those colors and be almost invisible until they are right on you.

We had been hunting a bird off and on all season that had a heckuva beard. I shot a different turkey near season ends that had about an 8” beard, I cut it off and then positioned the turkey like your picture sliding the cut beard as far out as I could and still make it look semi believable. He looked like he had a 15” beard in the pic.
