VTbowman Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #19 Cool on the unlooked for hunting spot! I shot my rig last weekend to check the red dot and man o man that baby is ON> I'll put it this way. I punched so many holes in the 10" circle, that I did not need to bother counting them. Heck, I can't count that high... Glad I checked it though. I was a bit high and right on my 1st shot... I also just ordered and brandby new set of Predator Green Decption camo too so I am hovering by the mail box everyday... Can't wait! Can't wait for May to roll around now...

Lilmissdangerous Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #19 Hey guys and gals!!! I went out hunting today and I had no luck!!! I have some good news though..... I saw 2 gobblers and about 5 hens on my hunt today, and herd one on the top of the hill. My Dad and I walked up to the field were he was gobbiling from and we were about 3 minutes to late. He must of not wanted to wait anymore and moved to the next field 300 yards away. We almost went to follow him and my Daddy Strut 10 saw the other turkeys I just told you about the 2 gobblers and 5 hens. We snuk up behind the gobblers and hens and called for about 1 hour and then we looked around to see if they were still there and they must have moved without us knowing. So then at that time we decided to hit home, because we were wet and cold because it was raining all morning. So maybe in a 2 weeks I will get anothet try to make the team and my self proud!!!!!!

VTbowman Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #19 Nice KS.. Lets see it..!!! Things look grim for me. My weekend trip was close but no cigar for 3 days. Now I am not hearing a dang thing and its not from lack of trying.. I have a few days planned for the up coming week but my confidence is low with this top part of the state not having a lot of birds as it is. Maybe I can find them but not holding my breathe. Good Luck to those who are still hunting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksbowhntr77 Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #19 HuntnMa here you go, another bird so yours won't be lonely. This is my bird finally posted. Shot this Eastern in Jefferson County, Kansas, about 3 miles from where I live. He appeared out of nowhere and just about caught me w/ my pants down. I was about to start moving again and caught him out of the corner of my eye. I slowly sat down with not that much cover. I softly clucked and purred alittle and he started feeding my direction. So I sat quietly and patiently waited. I shot him at about 40 yards with my Rem. 870 Express Magnum, w/3" Rem. Premium 6 shot. Laid him right down. Weight: 21.75 Both Spurs were 13/16" Beard#1: 7-7/8" Beard#2: 10-3/4" NWTF Score: 75.25 Enjoy and go Team #19!!! If you want to see all the pics, they are in the Turkey Pic Thread.

ksbowhntr77 Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #19 Man guys, you all must be working hard on your birds........ it's quiet in here. How are you guys comin'? I take it that most of the season's are coming to an end. How did you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTbowman Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #19 Mine ended May 31st and I am bird-less. Sorry folks. Its not for lack of tryin thats for sure. Too many close calls to list, it just was not meant to be for me this year. Good Luck to those who are still in this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksbowhntr77 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #19 That's cool, I know what it's like to come home at the end of a season empty handed. That would be me during bow season and deer. The opportunities are always there but it just doesn't seem to come together. That's alright, like the quote says: " That's why they call it hunting and not shopping." We gave it a good team effort and I was proud to share a team w/ all of you guys.
