Title: Dead Hooker
Post by: Flydown on March 22, 2013, 06:49:36 PM
Ronnie and I hit the woods this morning in the pouring rain and cold. Called up 4 jakes that strutted and gobbled in our face for almost an hour until this fella broke up the show. I wish we could have videod this hunt because when this fella walked in he had all 11 inches of his beard poked straight out and was side stepping at these youngins. They hauled tail outta there.I'm loving The Houndstooth Tomb Bomb Black 1 5/8 and 1 1/4 Broke tip! Good Times!

I wish there had been a camera on us when we rolled that dude over and saw what he was toting! Other than a bleep here and there, the looks on both of our faces, the high fives, and hand shakes would have been great to look back on years from now.

We've both been fortunate over the years to have scored on more than our fair share of "better than average" gobblers, some easy, others not so much. Granted, all of them are good, some are just better than others, especially when we've worked so hard and weathered the elements like we did this morning.

Congrats on another STUD brother, although I didn't pull the trigger, I cant imagine feeling any more pumped than I did when he hit the dirt.

BTW, it's my turn . . .  ;D
