Pipeline life has its positives and its negatives.  Turkey season is a definite positive.  Last year I tagged out in OH and PA, so I set my sight on WV.  Weather was a huge letdown, but I managed to get two birds pretty quick. 

Although I would have liked my son to kill his first bird on our family land in AR, bird in the hand is always better.  It was a panic filled hunt and the video proves this.

I was in route to a public spot, when a buddy working up here gave me a called me at 3:30 asking if I wanted to come hit some of the privileged land he got permission on.  I gladly obliged. 


Second bird was the next morning on the public land I was headed to the previous morning.  It was a super cool hunt.  Bird followed a hen off the roost into a  in well pad.  I actually rested my gun on some piping and let the ole 20 speak.  Tagged out and tallied another state...7 down, 42 to go.


Bird 3 was a little tougher.  OH brought on some seriously tough weather, work was starting to ramp up, and birds weren't in the spots I had them last year.  I got a wild hair and decided to take a mid day hunt.  This fella right here hit back at a box around 12:00 and was taking a piggy back ride at 1:00. 

This year is going to suck!!!

Great season. Congrats. My daughter took her first turkey this year and he was a nice one. I totally understand how you and your boy are feeling. Nothing better than spending time with our loved ones in the outdoors. Congrats again to you and your boy
