I feel like the rest of the season I will be playing with House money after the youth day hunt in VA.. it was quite simply awesome.. The video pretty much tells the story..
I put the blind in the right spot and never even had to make the first call .. I did call once they were in the Dekes.. just to feel like I had done something :) .. and called to keep the other two interested after the shot and as you will see they stuck around a bit.. the only thing better would have been a double by my youngest son, but it was just not meant to be.. I need to work with him more on shooting and feeling comfortable about the shot.. that is my fault.. I could also stand a dose of patience myself after listening to myself :) always learning no matter how many years we have been doing this.. This is my Oldest son Luke's First Longbeard.. he killed a Jake when he was 7, and missed a LB a couple years ago.. he didn't miss this one :)
I hope you enjoy the video..

Very cool. You handled that well. I had a similar thing happen, not youth and had the safety off and bead on the head, but he turned and headed where my son had a shot. He never squeezed the trigger. I kept positive and he is my favorite turkey hunting partner and has scored plenty now. Ya done good Dad.
Good times!
Congrats! Good Job by Everyone!!!
