Awsome morning in Ontario. I leaved home and it was awfully rainy. But by 4:30 am, rain stopped. My friend and I heard no gobbling at all. No turkeys did hit the muddy fields. So we took a walk in the wood and on the first call. A love sick gobbler answered, he took 10 minutes to get close as I called him in. At 7 am the 870 roared once again. I wanted to try reaping my last one in Ontario, but this hunt happened to be a text book one. It's a good bird at 21 lbs, 1'' spurs and 9'' beard.
My friend who was already tagged out film the hunt. I'll post it asap.

Well done Charley, beautiful bird. :icon_thumright:
Thank you Spurman. This bird had a special feature. His breast feathers were looking rippled from the weird color pattern.
At 300 yards apart, I took last year a blonde/black striped bearded gobbler and this year this odd turkeys breast feather pattern heheheheh
God bless turkeys in all their form, AMEN!
