  1. Glad to hear your choke did not get hurt or cracked. One thing it is good to check your point of impact(POI) verus your point of aim(POA). But you do not to check your turkey load you plan on turkey hunting with. Cause from load to load your POI verus POA could change. Plus check your POI to POA at 40 yards too. You may have to adjust it a little at 40 yards. Plus I use a 36" wide paper to pattern my shotgun so I can see the whole pattern. Good Luck on your patterning and the turkey hunting too.
  2. Here is a turkey I got back in 2008.
  3. Is that the end of the All stars of Spring DVD's for good. Or did they just have problems with getting the DVD together that caused them not to have a turkey DVD this year. I would be sad if they were stopping for good. If you get to ever talk with David Blanton please ask him these questions for me.
  4. I there going to be a All Stars Of Sring 19 DVD for this year. I have not seen it in stores anywhere.
  5. TTT I sure hope Realtree has noot stop making the turkey hunting DVD. I have been the Bass Pro Shop and other hunting store and yet to find Realtree All Stars Of Spring 19 DVD. If anyone has seen the for sale please PM me the info.
  6. Is there going to be a Realtree All Stars Of Spring 19 video this year? I have not seen any in stores yet. They should have already been out by now.
  7. Nice looking box stand.
  8. Nice pair of gobblers. Good looking Remy.
  9. Guys and gals I thought I would share my latest turkey mount. I took the gobbler back 2008.
  10. Awesome story. Great bird. Nice picture. I like that BPS Browning Shotgun. What load was you using? Thanks for sharing, Mike
  11. Thanks for the comments. It was a nice day in the woods. I think I walk about 3 miles that day. I had to rest up the other two days I was suppose to hunt. I guess I am getting old.
  12. TG do not let it get you down. With all the rain and cooker than normial weather it has been harder for everyone. I had to cancel alot of hunt due to high wind and rain. It would not surprise me if most of the states that had alot rain and flooding and storms for their harvest number to be down this year. We all go through a bad year ever now and then.
  13. Nice longbeard. Congrat's
  14. Great video. Hope you get a shot at him.
  15. April 14 2011 My daughter was gone to the Outer Banks for three days. So I thought I was going to have three days of hunting. My wife does not like to be alone and she asked me to sleep in. With so many early morning hunts I said yes. I still got down to my hunt club by 7:00 am. I had no more gotten out the truck near the front of my club and I heard a gobble. I got ready fast and headed after him. I setup on him within 100 yards of the property line. The gobbler was just on the edge of the line. I found out when I heard a few clucks that he had hens with him. He would not come my way so I did not waste time with him. It was still early so I decided to head to the middle of our club. I started off toward the back northwest corner of our property. I setup a few time on the way. There were three food plots in the back corner. I setup at the first one and the third one with no luck. So I decide to head back to the truck and rest. It was warm day. When I got back to the truck I was sweaty. I was wearing my Walls Bibs and they were just too warm for my afternoon hunt. I changed into some cool BDU pants. I had noticed on my way back to the truck there were some gobbler and hen tracks heading toward the truck but turned to the right before I got to my truck. After I pasted that turn I noticed a hens track leading to the same turn. So I knew just were they had headed. I hiked down that road to a good spot along a creek. I began calling with some clucks and yelping on my slate caller. I was also caller of a mouth call. After an hour or two I began to mix in some cuts and got a gobble off the property about 250 yards or so. He stayed put for a little while. He began coming straight to me. He was about a 100 yards from me and I could not see him. The woods were thick and knew he work probably be in range has soon as he came into sight. He gobbled about 60 yard out. I put the slate call down and began to just work him in with my mouth call. I finally saw him coming about 50 yards out. He was strutting all the way in. He began moving angling to my right. When he went behind some thick stuff I shifted to my right and got on him when he was in a small clearing. As soon has he was in my sights I fired. He went down and did not flop much at all. It was 4:20 pm. He was a nice longbeard with over an inch spurs. He was 40 steps from where I shot him. I tagged him and began taking some pictures. After I found my spent hull I headed back to the truck. I weighted him at the truck on my Berkley 50lb scales. He weighted 20 lbs. 6 oz. His beard measured 10” even and his left spur was1 1/16” and his right spur was 1 1/8”. It was an awesome day in the spring woods.
