I went to KY for the weekend , Shelby County , busted my first Turkey and I am excited as I can get out. I am pretty new to turkey's and will profess I cant call worth a hoot ( for now anyway) I ran off two toms that had beards dragging the ground then pulled one in to about 50 yards he puffed out a few times and booked.
I was in a good blind and sealed the deal last night around 6 PM I had been in the blind since 1 PM that was a struggle in itself my ADD kicked in big time around hour 3.
Anyway I had two hens and 1 jake decoy set up and a tom cam into them about 25 yards so I shot him. Very cool and now I am hooked I still dont have enough confidence to chase birds and try to call them in. This am there was frost on the ground and when the sun started to come up they were hammering everywhere.
I will post some pics tom when I get to work
18 lb bird 6 inch beard little spurs but his head was white hot when he came in ..I honestly have never seen a tom gobble and head change colors before
come on next weekend I am ready for Indy to open
