Diamondback7 Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Well it was my little brother Clay's (8yrs) first turkey hunt. We set up on some birds early and my dad calls in five jakes real close with a big strutter in the back hung up at 35 yrds. Now Clay is shooting a 20ga. and my dad didn't want him to take that far of a shot so he gave me the green light. This was one of my best birds: 10 1/2 in beard 1 3/8 in spurs. An hour later we stop at another spot and Clay falls asleep in my dad's arms, i start calling a bit and here come two jakes runnin. My dad wakes him up and gets him ready, the bigger of the two stops at about 8yrds and Clay makes a great shot! Later on in the morning we set up once again and as soon as i start calling i hear birds gobbling over the hill and 5 min later 3 toms come in got one of them. What a great hunt it doesn't get much better than that! ive got pictures but dont know how to put them on here???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
