friday morning we get there and set up dave is to the east of my in the same field at least 1/2 mile away. well i am set up where the field turns from the west to the north and a goood place for the birds to come into the field. at 0615 he gobbles and its game time after a little light yelping and he is gobbleing at me. i shut up and wait. well at 0629 he is headed towards the field. he steps into the feild i pull the trigger.
nice bird, 21.5 lbs, 1 inch spurs with 1st beard of 5 1/4 inches and 2nd at 10 7/8 inches. dave dosent hear a thing. and he is ready to head to bama, which with the bad weather that might be headed towds there we pack up and head home. got here to the house at 00040 saturday morning.
