I started out when I was 12 with my dad. I used a 870 20 gauge an old school HS vest a few cheap primos mouth calls and an antique lynch box call that was my papaws and some old jungle fatigue camo that was way to big for me. Killed my first two birds the spring following that an haven't looked back since. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Forgot to mention the Winchester supreme 3'' #5's that knocked down my first strutter at 43 yards through a stock x-full choke.

Started with a Winchester 1200 and a Winchoke X-Full tube, Federal 2 3/4" magnums #2 shot, a tube call I made out of a 35mm film can, a rubber surgical glove and some black electrician's tape.

Nobody had ever even heard or THOUGHT of a turkey vest yet.
