Ravin R10 man Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Congrats, when did your season open? Still have a couple weeks here in the northeast. Wed at daybreak...I was in deer shooting house with heat, and was there for the long hual...birds either come thru after roost or before going back to roost..just a matter of time...so I just wait.

Ravin R10 man Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 like I said, I do call to let them know I'm there...they eventually work their way over, we still have 3 foot of snow in the ravines, so you cant really run & gun much like Rhino does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiobucks Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I'll bet that bird was happy to get into the freezer just to escape the cold!! :-) Nice bird Martin, congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotashRLS Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Dandy bird. Wow is that heavy for such a winter. We haven't seen one over 20lbs 3oz. killed this spring. You whacked a big ole Tom. Congrats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin R10 man Posted April 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I'll bet that bird was happy to get into the freezer just to escape the cold!! :-) Nice bird Martin, congrats! his feet looked like snowshoes with all the wet snow sticking to them...He's headed for a much warmer place in the near future!..lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Wed at daybreak...I was in deer shooting house with heat, and was there for the long hual...birds either come thru after roost or before going back to roost..just a matter of time...so I just wait. I always say it's easy to convince a bird to go where it's already headed. looks like a great plan payed off. that's a heavy bird. Congrats!
