Family tradition still alive

[zelmo1]

So I am a first generation turkey hunter. My first bird was a jake on my first hunt. My sons first bird was a jake on his first hunt. My daughters first bird was a jake on her first hunt. That leaves my wife, who shot a double bearded jake for her first bird on her first hunt. Us Bakers are jake Killers I guess. We are truly blessed. I guess my future grandchildren will have to break the tradition. Dam kids

Jakes eat just fine

Lots of us took jakes as a first bird, especially us self-taught hunters it seems.  And there is nothing wrong with that.  Keep 'em going and I'm sure the longbeards will begin to fall in coming seasons!

I doubt the smiles and memories were any less

My first bird was a hen during fall season. After 3 years of failed attempts when I finally got an opportunity to take one, I did not think once. Still smile thinking about it, broke the spell.

Nothing wrong with that,especially when it's their first bird. Congrats to the young hunters.
