GLS-Excellent sounding hunt and magnificent bird. Gotta love it when they manage to come in on your right and leave you frozen and cramped up until that break comes when a tree is whats left between you and dinner. I will try again before the week is out.

Best,
jmc

Not only can a gobbler do that, George, but I have had a big buck to pull that very same stunt. He was coming straight to me in the Savannah River swamp, near a lagoon....... he got behind a big cypress stump and I never saw him again! Amazing.

Well this is a 2013 photo but what the heck.

This is my first turkey. After a week of being up at strange hours in the morning, having birds hangup at 75 yards I figured it just wasn't going to be my year. Yesterday at 6:40am this tom came in and I took him at 35 yards with 1 1/8 oz. of number 5 from the Winchester Model 12 16 gauge I bought myself on my birthday last year. I bought it because it was made in the year of my birth. It looks much better at 58 than I do.

He isn't the biggest bird with his 6 1/2 inch beard and 3/4 inch spurs but he is special because he is my first turkey After my shot, he rolled down the slope 20 yards through the brush and busted some feathers in his fan and left wing. No matter, that fan will join years of grouse fans in my offie book case.

Preserve hunt in January. My college senior son (graduates Saturday) and the old gun that turned me on to "rusty old guns".
Guide said, We never had a group that all shot SxS, are ya'll in a club or something?
