Title: A hardwood bottom happing (x2)
Post by: Preacher on April 21, 2011, 01:17:06 PM
Its been a little slow this year,  its been down right hard to set up on a gobbler.  Untill this week , Donnie( hunting buddy) ( Catdaddy's twin seperated at birth) and I have each gotten one the last 2 days. 
Donnie's bird gobbled every 5 seconds for 20 min. untill he meat up with a swarm of high veloicity #5's .  3 year old with a 9 in beard and good sharp 1 in. spurs. 

This morning the old Mornarch of the swamp olny gobbled aobut 8 times then came running up a cow path when all his girlfriends left him ( including one white one)  at 39 yards I dropped the hammer and the high 5en began.    Enjoyed both hunts just as much as the other .
my bird had 11 in. beard and nearly 1.5 in spurs.
