Title: Happiness
Post by: zelmo1 on April 29, 2023, 11:21:09 AM
I'll let the pics , if they load, tell the story. I had the privilege of guiding this wonderful young lady on her first turkey hunt. It was a memorable morning. Her and her dad are wonderful people. If I could tape any of the many hunts I have been a part of, this would have been one of my top 5. Got inside 75 yards, by an educated guess. He hammered, we set up right there. He gobbled hundreds of times on the limb and I actually saw him walking back and forth. He flies down and gobbles his brains out. I call enough to keep him interested, not hard to do. He hung up as usual at 50 and I snuck behind them and called away from him. He broke and came to the tote road and strutted right to the jake decoy I put out, old feather flex. The young lady waited till he got to 25 yards and dad gave the word. Perfect shot and a perfect day with a friend and a new hunting little buddy. Anybody that isn't smiling right now is a zombie. This is why I do this, it makes me feel good. Good luck and God Bless. Z
