Correction, I have to take 2 -100 mg pills. Once in am and once in pm

Thanks all. I have 2 permits left and may give it another try. I never got more than one Tom each season.

Keep at it buddy. What permits did you get?

28 pills, no refills of one day each dose of 100 MG tablets of Doxyccline Hyclate

I know you meant well but that does not work on two levels, thoughtfulness for the injured and a lack of knowledge on basic economic theory.

I just got word that a neighbor right out side Geiger, AL had his house lifted and dropped in the lake on his property. This storm has been horrible

I am waiting for some family photos from Sumter County and Birmingham. They are fine but it hit too close for comfort. Prayers sent to all.

They arrived today and I have it on the first 6 hour charge before I will use it. The look good, fit well. I look forward to seeing how well it performs!:camera:

Congrats! Welcome to the Tom Taker Fraternity!

Good luck, lets see those pics when you have a chance

I got a Tom on Monday and when I got home and showered I rubbed off my chest some little black bug that left a red spot. I went to the Doctor and I got a Rx for Lyme's just in case. The Doctor was pleased we took the precaution so soon. It may not be Lyme's but I would rather be safe than sorry.

Thanks guys! I am still so pumped these many days after from that great hunt!

Thanks!

Congrats! I also use Mossberg and had a great opening day. Those Mossberg's perform!

As a public servant I had to comply with the Governor's orders! Story posted in success thread. Thanks for asking!

Opening Day results yesterday Up early and set up in the back 82 acres at 5:20AM facing south on a gently rolling hill that goes down into the holler. 5:25 AM and I hear a Tom gobbling like all get out. I hit my Cody Drop Dead slate and get an immediate response. At my direct right off 40 yards is the end of my property line. About 20 yards out is an old stone fence put there during the 1700's by farmers. The stone wall runs south to north and the other side obscures the Tom. I see him fanning but I just see the top of the tail feathers. At 5:30am I see a turkey fly down off the roost but I can not tell if it is a Tom or a hen. I call and get a response but the Tom stays on the other side. For 40 minutes he calls and struts and occasionally. I see him in full strut. He responds to my calls and I try to not to over do it. Then off he goes straight off to my right and deeper into my neighbor's property. Then, silence. I felt that was it but I was still excited to have held a Tom that long and have him calling so often. Deer come up from the holler and follow the same path the Tom took. About a half an hour later he comes back calling. The deer are also back and now I see hens with him! I call gently every now and then. Finally after 30 minutes, I peak his interest again with my occasional calling. Over the wall he comes. I hold and wait as some downed trees block a clean shot. He is call and strutting and his wattles are deep, deep red. One more call sequence and he commits and moves across me going right to left. At 20 yards I see a clear opening. I raise my Mossberg 835 Ulti Mag and get the Bushnell Holo Sight and get his head dead center in the sight. The Hevi Hot 3 1/2" shell sings out and he does a back flip and down! It is 7:15 AM and I have all my gear packed and bird in tow heading back to my truck and then to the check station. I surprised the guys at the Firehouse that night with a fully cooked Tom with all the fixing. I have gotten significantly larger Toms over the years but I have never had a Tom so close and calling so long and often. It sure made for a memorable opening day!

I will wear that new anti-lighting camo!:jaw:

But in Jersez we have the Meadowlands to resolve those issues:toot:

I got the I-Kam video camera. Yes, I know I have the EPIC Stealth Cam but theses just seemed a lot easier as you can keep your target in view with your eyes. That can be tricky with the EPIC attached to a hat. Thus is my theory anyway. Tomorrow's opener is EPIC only and I hope I tag out. If I do, I still have enough tags to 2 more Toms and then there is fishing & deer season so it may come in handy. Heck, the eyeglasses my be a hoot on an FD run in the truck. Cabelas knocked them down 1 /3 on price but I got them elsewhere online for 2/3 off. I am such an internet shopper!

If you are active and serving like me, send me a PM, I can show you how to get the Military Oakley at a significant discount from Oakley. Proof of service with ID sent into Oakley is required. I have another one on backorder for myself.
