Title: Youth Hunts?
Post by: whiskey on March 23, 2011, 10:38:31 PM
Any one taking a kid hunting on a youth turkey hunt this year?

My daughter and I will be in the woods this Saturday for the Tennessee youth weekend. I am setting our blind up tomorrow and sitting in it Friday morning to make sure the birds are where they are supposed to be. I hope this year my daughter can score on a big ol tom!

Two of my daughters are off tomorrow from school, I will take both of them if they will get out of bed. Yesterday I called in four Jakes that came in fast and hard to the call and stop 15 feet in front of me looking for the hen. Then they all started what I call "plocking", they came in so fast I could not pick up the camera. I wish my daughters were with me then; when you are sitting on the ground and the turkeys are that close they look hugh.

I got our blind up this afternoon and got to see the flock headed towards their roost. There were 5 strutters and a few more toms. One was a big bad boss daddy. I got a good look at him a couple times. Long wavy beard and a big full fan.

I hope the kid can scalp that big boy this weekend.

Our  youth season is april 2nd & 3rd. Taking my nephew on the 3rd he has a ball game on the 2nd. 

I'll take what I can get I guess.  Might have to kidnap one next year he'll be too old.
