Third day out. Nothing gobbling at 6 a.m. sunrise. Too cold. At another location at 10 a.m. I made three calls. A one gobble answer. Got gun up. Only a blue and red head appeared from the bottom peeping at me. With enough gun in hand and Federal TSS, about forty-five to fifty yards. Otherwise he was going to be gone in a flash. Ten inch beard, 19.5 pounds, 3/4" spurs.
