Congrats! Very special hunt.

You go, Bailey,  I won't even ask how's it going.
"[T]he changing environment will someday be totally and irrevocably unsuitable for the wild turkey.  Unless mankind precedes the birds in extinction, we probably will not be hunting turkeys for too much longer."  Ken Morgan, "Turkey Hunting, A One Man Game

What a great way to celebrate your birthday. Congrats!
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.

Thanks guys, just to let you guys know I am a ole hard azz but I got emotional today, it meant a lot to me today, parents are in late eighties and to share it with them meant a lot and while I love this time of year it is also a bad time of the year for me and my wife, we lost your 16 year old son ten years ago in a car accident,10 years as I type this it seems like it was yesterday!

Congrats on a great day indeed 3b3! Happy birthday as well as congrats on your bird! Given those circumstances, I totally understand why you'd be emotional.

Happy birthday to you and congratulations on the bird. Your dad did a fine job with the picture. My father was electrocuted to death in a construction job on August 29 1986 when I was 16 and it also still feels like yesterday. I am so very sorry for your families loss.

Congrats Baily and be thankful for your dad's participation.  I hear some pretty great people are born this time of year  :happy0064: (my B-day is March 27th, 1955 ). I am sorry for the loss of your son and all the dreams lost with him. I think back to my turkey hunting and my relationship with my father. I hunted a lot with my dad and he was amazed, when I first started hunting turkeys, that he had lived to see turkeys on our land again. He only turkey hunted with me one time before he died unexpectedly. He never got to see my first bird or the many since, but I know it would have thrilled him. I wish I could say you will some day move past your loss, but love leaves an unrecoverable mark on our hearts and souls, so we do our best to remember and honor those we can no longer hug. With all God's Love I wish you many years of great experiences and fond memories.
