Title: Daddy Daughter Double w/ video
Post by: gophert on April 04, 2015, 12:40:53 PM
Sometimes, the stars align and it all comes together. We have been trying to get a double for 5 years since she started shooting and something always goes wrong. Usually I miss because of my nerves. We got to the back of the property and knew these birds were strutting on the property line about 1000 yards away. (its a big field). I hit the box and cut on the mouth call a few times and gobbled about 3 times. It must have upset the lead hen because she got really upset. I hit her with a few more cutts and the next thing I know she's headed up the hill and guess who was following. Enjoy the video!!!

Congrats to you both! At first I thought she was a little off her game, didn't put as much into the celebration dance as we've come to expect, but then it ended with the best dance yet.  :icon_thumright:

I'm afraid that the un-inhibited turkey boogie days are coming to a close as she becomes a young lady.  I too miss the high intensity turkey boogie, but there is nothing better than sharing a tree with her.

All i can say is "Way cool".  I have tried to get my daughter out and kill one but she is too busy most of the time..  Be greatful for these days. My buddy used to go fishing with me all the time, now that she's an adult It is hard to get her to go. Sadly she missed the only gobbler she got a shot at.

It's got about 1/4 oz of TSS in it, but its all good.  You can't tell by looking at that its even been shot.  She did bust it however.  Had there been another bird back there we would have had birds down everywhere.
