Guy from church who has only been chasin' turkeys a couple years invited me to go to his lease yesterday morning. First gobble of the morning is a jake about 150 yards straight infront of us. After fly down I get the jake cranked up with some aggressive cutts and excited yelps. Well sure nuff ole big couldn't stand it and starts sounding off to our left. We get up and mover 50 yards and set back up. Bird came in on a string putting on a show. He ended it at about 30 yards. 10.5" beard 1 1/8 spurs  We could hear another one a pretty good ways off and we strike out after him. We circle around an old field and close the distance to less than 100 yards.  Few soft yelps and I could hear him drumming. Within minutes he was flopping too. 10.5" beard 7/8 spurs 18.7lbs   2 down in less than 30 minutes   :funnyturkey:

May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?
If attacked by a mob of clowns, go for the juggler.
