Post by: ccleroy on March 15, 2012, 12:51:41 PM

Off the limb this morning the birds we were hunting didnt say much at all.......worked them and finally decided to leave them and head to another spot to try our luck.....soon as we get there I get this bird fired up and coaxed his hens in with Longbeard in tow. Used one of my 100 y/o wormy chesnut slate that came from Rebel Yell and his Father and finished them off with my MKW Trumpet.It was a great show with all the hens in our laps at 5 yards for 10 plus minutes until he could get the shot lined up.

18.9 lbs,11.5" and 1 1/8
