I'll tell u all about the hunt,they started gobbling about daylight I all so had a friend with me that has never killed a turkey. When we got to the farm an started unloading he for got his chair for the blind. He found himself we will call it a stump. We got the blind an deks set up, turkeys still gobbling I waited until flydown before I started calling soft purrs an clucks. They went hushmouth I used every call I had alot. Then I put the executioner diaphragm in of hooks an it was like lighting BAM he was cutting me off every time. We were set up on a point or finger in the field that ran down into the hard woods, he was just about to come out of the hard woods, an as allways here comes the farmers cattle.Push him on around past us an he came up on the next point father down the field. I hit him with the mouth call BAM he started cutting me off again. Lord be hole they were two longbeards, one for both of us. I told Wayne to get ready when they got within 20-25 yards counted 123 BOM Wayne's hit the dirt mine flew straight up into a tree. I seen a flash go by me an to my surprise Wayne's 835 flip him off the stump he was laying on his back. I had to tell u all what happen to Wayne I got my bird but poor o Wayne didn't. I wish he had got his instead of me getting mine,they will be another time. Seen four more that was bigger than the one I killed. I'm looking for the ones brother that I kill year be for last he had 11.5 beard 1 3/4 in spurs an weighted 28.3 pounds. Good luck to all of u an be safe BigHooks.....  Johnny...

Nice bird Johnny you the man :icon_thumright: Ive put all my eggs in one basket trying to kill this one bird
I've become obsessed with. If I can get him it will be a big score for the team. I have been close twice and he keeps giving me the slip. I think I'm going to have to pull off of him and hunt some other places its hard because i have so much time invested in that one bird. maybe I can get another kill and go back after him before the season goes out.
