Title: Got my bird this morning
Post by: allchokedup on April 06, 2011, 08:59:46 PM
The weather has been a little shaky here in TN and I was finally able to connect this morning. The first day of season the birds were gobbling their heads off and after trying different set up's, I was only able to call in two jake's . Between the rain and wind , I decided to sit in my blind this morning. I heard 1 bird gobble on the roost and then after flydown...nothing.  At 11:13 am 2 gobblers came in and one came home with me. 17 lbs, 9 " beard and 1 " spurs. Shot with my 20 gauge M2 with Hevi 13 #7's

Congrats on a persistent hunt.  Some probably woulda called it quits in wind/rain.   :icon_thumright:I cant wait to hunt TN in late April.  Hopefully the birds will still be hot.

Way to stick it out. Too many people go back to the truck at 10:00 and miss out on a lot of opportunities!
