A word from the Captain

Just wanted to say I've enjoyed being your Captain. I think it's pretty cool we all set out to kill turkeys using trumpets, and have been getting it done. You guys are flat out killers and are getting it done, but also you all have read the rules and  followed them pretty well. our pictures are pretty good, and thats huge for winning this thing.Unfortunately some other teams pictures aren't that great and they will likely have some birds disqualified. Thanks for all your hard work thus far.

We still haven't won this thing and a few more upgrades would help. We got some guys still hunting so keep em pumped up with encouragement and in the woods. It's easy to skip a few hunts with a long season. Hunt hard and have fun. Thanks fellas.

Yup I have until May22nd.  Hopefully I can upgrade, thats if I can find them at that time.  Lots of vegetation, hay will be waste tall along with the wheat.  And I am not sure how they will respond.

But we got 4" of rain in 24 hrs so alot of nests I think have been ruined, maybe this will prolong the breading cycles and keep the toms active?

Del,

We really appreciate you taking all the time to make this team work. While my season is over, there are some guys that still have a chance to upgrade as well as put up some points. It has been a great, fun year and I am already looking forward to March 15 2013!

There is a very good chance they will. Good luck

You bet fellas. It's been a blast.....don't count me out. Got my second wind for the last two weeks. Got a dandy this afternoon, but he is 1 point under my big spurred bird.  63.875


18lb 12 oz, 11 inch beard, 1 1/8 spur and 1 3/16 spur. Got one more bird in GA to tag out. Billy Buice olive wood trumpet.

Thanks Del for all you have done for the team. I have enjoyed having you as Captain, team mate and hunting buddy. You taught me a lot about turkey hunting and for that I am very greatful.
