Title: Congratulations Thread!!
Post by: GobbleNut on March 17, 2011, 10:18:31 PM
I didn't want to clutter up the official kill thread, so I figured I would start one to say congratulations to our successful teammates, starting with Boff (David) for breaking the ice for the Crusaders!  

Congratulations on two great gobblers to get us going, buddy!  Now let's have some other team members follow suit!

Jim

I had a fantastic hunt . We got there the eve. before we were to hunt and I watched a wheat field till almost dark ,it was full of birds. I went back in next morning an hour before daylight put out a Jake and a hen deke and then waited ,but not long ,When i left the house we were staying in that morning it was 31 degree's and clear,you could see every star a 30 min drive and the clouds moved in fast.When I sat down, back to a Cottonwood tree, a clap of thunder and a few sprinkles started THE MOST GOBBLEING I have ever heard and this went on for over an hour. At 638 a sing hen flew down in the field and looked back at my dekes I made 1 series of quiet yelps on a Cocobolo Copper I bought from Gobblerstopper ,she turned to me and clucked real loud and it started raining turkeys and it lasted for 3min , I never saw anything like it !!! Now it was raining rain for real a downpour , a coyote entered the field and headed right for the birds I shot the bigger one at 61 yards I didn't know it was that far when I shot but he hit the ground and didn't flop .A bird that had been strutting with the first bird turned and ran straight st me I shot him at 20 on the run ,turned out to be a jake with a full fan. I was using a SBE2 12 with h15 7s and it broke a wing and leg bone on the first bird at that distance.My buddy took the first picture handed me the phone and i turned and took the second one. My Kansas hunt was one I will never forget and ended one 642 on the first morning.
Forgive me for reposting this story by cut and past but if you saw how long it took me to type it you would alow it . :happy0064:
