Well I shot my first turkey yesterday. Pretty exciting. I met Kyle yesterday morning and we went and and called all morning, and only got a couple of gobbles way off in the distance. We set up our ground blinds over looking a field at 2:00 and within minutes we had a hen in the field. Not long after that we had 4 hens in the field. They never left the field we had them in front of us for 5 hours. They worked there way to the other end of the field and that is when we say the tom. He was about 500 yards away. Luckily the hens decided to come back to our end of the field and he was right with them. He saw our decoys and came in. I shot him at about 25 yards. He had a 9 1/2" beard 26 mm spurs and weighed 30 lbs. Needless to say I was pretty excited. Also we got the whole thing on video. It turned out pretty good. It was Kyles first time to video. I thank him for doing that.
