Got out yesterday for day 1 that actually started on Saturday here in PA. I usually miss the first 2 days due to being at the Southern, so, it began as usual. Smoked a slammer Tom at 8:15 AM. 24 lbs, 9 1/4" paintbrush beard, total spurs 2 5/16". Now for filling tag #2!!

Whoa;

Nice bird. Anything that big and well fed must of had a name and been someones pet. Did you make sure there were no strings on that turkey?

Just kidding. Glad you got off to the right start. Hope your next ones even bigger.

Good going guys nice seeing somebody still enjoying the spring season.It will ease the withdrawals I am experiencing after two months of turkey season in Florida and NC..

Way to go Mike. I don't see a gun in the pics. Did you shoot that with your buddy Dave's Elsie? I bet he made you use it after that thrashing you gave him.

Well you told me you were going to do it on the first day. You're like Babe Ruth calling your shots. What a bird!

Well, bird #2 went down on my day 3 at 6:58 AM. The bearded hen has a 6 1/4" beard and came in with 3 gobblers and she was taken left handed at 15 yards. Nothin' to it!! Now it's time to move on to woodchucks.

Who says turkey hunting is challenging. Congrats. Youssa Killa.

Looks like you had a great (albeit short) season. And what are you taking woodchucks with, if I may ask?
