Title: FINALLY!!!!
Post by: chatterbox on April 28, 2012, 03:48:56 AM
Well guys, getting ready to leave in about an hour for NH's youth hunt!
H is PUMPED to say the least. Gonna be a cold morning. Temp is right around 22 degrees right now, and it was a windy night on the limb, so I'm thinking the birds might be a little nervous this morning.
We're ready though. It's gonna be fun!

Well guys, it didn't work out like we would've liked.
The birds gobbled early, but at flydown went the other way. The wind was howling and it was biting cold.
We never heard another sound from a gobbler all day.
The kids were troopers, and are ready to go tommorow.
I'm taking a good friends son tommorow, so we'll have to see what happens. H is gong back to the place we hunted today.

Hey that's great news! Bad about the weather but just getting a kid in the field hunting is a success in itself.

Good luck

Theres alot of memories besides the birds we take. I remember the breakfast at the truckstop where my uncle took me as a boy and the the hard candy he carried in his camo call bag. 30 years ago in some parts of VA it was a treat just to hear one gobble. Your making memories even if you dont get the bird. So congrats on being out there.  The floppin' tom is just the icing on the cake.  :camohat:
