Title: Low country gobbler down......UP GRADE
Post by: jbrown on April 18, 2012, 02:26:35 PM
Had an awesome hunt this mornin, watched 2 long beards chase hens and strut for 2 hrs. They gobbled good on the limb, with no gobblin after fly down. Sweet talkin and purrin with 2 Houndstooth mouth calls finally closed the deal at 8:45am. Thanks for the calls Lyle, you build and awesome mouth call!! I'm at the river house , I'll post pictures when I get home. I shot him at 47 steps usin Win Sup lead #6's. Weight 19.75lb, double beard, 11.75" and 8.75", both spurs 1" sharp and hooked....a limb hanger! Score 80.75

Thanks for the kind words guys! I think we can win this thing with a couple more good gobblers or upgrades. Finally back home, posted pics of my upgrade.
