Gave my SIL what was left of a box of Federal high brass "Game Loads" in 20 ga. with both #6 and 7.5 shot for his hunting buddy's new gun, a camoed-up autoloader with 28" barrel and screw chokes. Kid is a novice but appreciates the right ammo/gun recipies for a 30-yd. shot. First time out they saw no birds in range but heard toms all around them. Next time....

Hey, I did not realize you got the trail camera pictures, too. What a treat to have all this come together. We are finally home and I hope to get out tomorrow. I hope you left at least one Missouri bird for me.

There are at least one or two left for you.....

I was up at my Cabin Saturday, realized I still had trail camera running right where the Tom strutted past. Luckily it captured a nice sequence of pics....

He was coming in pretty hot as you can see with first two pics... I have camera set to take burst of three pics each time it's triggered. He complete crossed field of view from pic1 to pic2.... 8 minutes later, I'm staging him for pics.

Ya, it was a nice bonus to the hunt....

Best of luck this week, I looked for Morels, too early at my place... The vegitation on the forest floor, just didn't look right yet for there to be any. I looked in all my usual places and not even a small grey to be found....

This weekend they may be popping up your way....
