Title: ...Another One Bites the Dust...
Post by: NCBigShot on April 15, 2012, 12:25:10 AM
...Today was the season opener in NC, and I was fortunate enough to kill a nice sized gobbler on my club land in Vance County this morning at 7:30am.

..18.83 lbs., 1 3/16" spurs, 10 3/4" beard.

...One of my homemade calls got his attention on the roost, and eventually brought him to the gun.

...Hope everyone has an exciting and successful spring season! (http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z345/alwho/smilies/cheers.gif)
