Didn’t hear a bird this morning and had to be here in court by 9:00. Maybe some of y’all will get one.

I put us on the board. 22 lbs 12 oz, 15/16” spurs and little 5.5” beard. How the heck do I post pics? What’s the official process?

Congrats Matt!
We were on a promising one this morning and a dog ran through between us barking and shut him up. A little later we had a couple jakes come in. We left and got to another spot and worked one to about 70 yards or so but he had a pile of hens with him and they didn't want to come any closer. Back to work tomorrow but I think I have a decent plan for the last bird sat morning.

This bird didn’t start gobbling until nearly 9 o’clock. Didn’t take long to get him in after I started calling to him. I pulled the trigger at 9:15. He’s the heaviest bird I’ve ever killed at 22 lbs 12 oz on a digital scale. My other scale said 23 lbs 4 oz but I think that was a little high. He had 15/16” spurs on both sides and I got one strand of beard to 5.5”. Doesn’t appear to have beard rot. Just don’t have much there. Tickled to start the season off right. Was a great hunt.

Congratulations Mbrock. I plan on going in the morning. I've got a couple that are coming out in my food plot and I'm gonna ambush them with my bow.

I didn't hear anything this morning but I did see five hens. One of them had about a seven inch beard. She almost got shot before I realized it was a hen.

Didn't see or hear anything this afternoon. Looks like rain for the next few days and then I have to go back to work. Maybe I'll get one next week.

Good luck guys. I heard one yesterday morning, got after him and he was across a big creek. While trying to find a route to approach him from the other side of the creek I ran into a couple of older gentlemen (early 70’s) in my club that informed me I had been piddlin on the adjoining club! They thought it was hilarious. This is my first year in the club and I didn’t even know that I was anywhere close to a property line. Anyhow, I’m back this morning and maybe I’ll find one on our property this morning. I did find 2 arrowheads in a food plot on the adjoining club. ![[Linked Image]](https://s26.postimg.org/4ma44bvb9/D9334178-37_A3-4764-8466-_B811_AF0_B8_BD9.jpg)
