Today is my birthday and was the second day of a 2.5 day hunt in GA. I heard only one yesterday, so I went to a spot 12 miles down the road. The fog was thick, but I heard one gobble several times in the tree. By the time I got to him, he was on the ground and had quit gobbling
I called a few times, and about 30 minutes later he finally gobbled again. I answered with the red call and he fired another gobble back at me. 5 minutes later he was 27 yds away and the right barrel of the Yildiz dropped him. He was an old bird with sharp 1.25" spurs.
I carried him to the camp and decided to check out the bird I heard yesterday. As soon as I got out of the truck, I heard him gobble, and he was in a good place. A few more yelps from the red call, and he was 41 yds away, and the left barrel of the Yildiz dropped him. He was a double bearded 2 yr old.
Its been a good day!

Congrads and Happy Birthday. Best of all, it sounds as if the Yildiz has forgiven you.

Congrats PCP and happy birthday
"Tomorrow is the most important thing in life.
Comes to us at midnight very clean.
It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands.
It hopes we've learned something from yesterday."

What a way to celebrate your birthday!!
Congratulations are in order for:
1) living this long
2) being such a turkey killer
3) killing a bird with both barrels out of that gun you worked so hard to get to shoot like you want it!
Happy birthday Steve!
