Getting late in the season, but, sometimes you need the big gun:)

Congrats. Season is closed here so the Toms are back in the yard again strutting by the Grandkids swing set.

I would have loved to shoot a long beard, but they were not at all interested in my calling, so after sitting in the stand/blind for 7 hours, I decided to take what was offered. Stan |
We saw a bunch on Dad's place this weekend. As usual . . . they know the season is not in.

Ha, you have that right, Mills. When I pulled up to the farm the other day for some work, I was greeted by 4 toms at my gate.
|
You should have invited them in for dinner.

Been a tuff year! Finally got my bird the other day! He’s an old boy for sure. Longest spur was almost 1 3/4” if the tip wasn’t broke off. Must have been a fighter. The beard was long but no where as thick as most I shoot on my property. Looks like he’s got a little white/grey in a few of his tail feathers…like me.lol. Where the white is the top bands are thinner. Wonder if he lost them and they grew back that way?

This guy started gobbling at 10:53am across the road on my neighbors property. He kept gobbling non stop every 30 seconds to a couple of minutes till it finally showed up at 5:03pm! Made for a long, long, long, but rewarding day. I did shoot and remove a coyote coming into my call last week as well. One less hunter in my property! |
Very nice bird. Love the picture of the spur.
