Tagged out for the spring season!
Had a line of two toms and a few jakes cutting across the bottom of the field I was in, probably 75 yards below me. The entire field is on a slope. They didn’t respond to calling or the decoy I had out. Played it patient and sure enough they came back across...
Got my first turkey today after the rains let up. Could have doubled up, but didn’t want the season to end on my first day out. Best part for me was being able to use my grandfather's shotgun while he's still with us and relaying the pictures and info to him.
