Title: 2nd Gobbler of 2022. Wife's FIRST Turkey ever!!
Post by: Cowboy on April 10, 2022, 09:45:47 AM
Roosted this gobbler last night. Only one gobble and had to jerk it out of him at sundown. We slipped in early this morning and about an hour after fly down he came in. He gobbled behind us but we we were able to switch trees and I made 2 series of calls and then we heard him drumming.  I told her I hear drumming a little to your left.  He walked in to view at about 75 then strutted and half strutted into 30 steps. She made a fine shot. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220410/558af10c7a61ceef5dfa411a9e0c8e93.jpg)

That's awesome! Great bird. Could she hear the drumming as well? I know some cannot hear drumming.

Sounds like a great scenario for her first bird even though he wasn't gobbling much, nice going!

Oh yeah, She was hearing it as well. Shes been going hunting with me over 5 years now. Plus we rake the kids youth season. For past 3 years. Even got them to hear drumming during their seasons.

Congrats! I'm sure you are both very proud.
I know she is very proud to get her first turkey. I also know the work you put into helping get her first and making that happen makes you proud as well.
Codos, great job by both of you!

Nice bird.  Congratulations.  That's what it's all about.  From now on you will have to drag her out of the woods! Ha! ;D
