Well I went back out to try to get mine…..well that was the plan anyway. Walked in the regrowth, where we hunted today. Didn’t get far in and I seen a Turkey feeding through the trees. Fuck I’m standing in an acre of 5” water with no where to go or hide. She got behind some stuff so I slowly moved to a 12” tree to sit down but it had a 1/2” of water. So I kneeled down. Put my face mask on and grabbed my slate. Two soft series of short yelps had her coming to me while she fed. In tow w 2 Tom’s about 30 yards behind her. She got within 25 yards of me and started to go past me on an angle. The Tom’s slowly followed behind and was strutting about 45 yards away when she decide to leave, walking away from me and back. The Tom’s turned to follow and I had 2” to get to my shoulder to shoot. One Tom spooked and they turned to run. I shot and nothing stayed to take the ride to the camp. It’s hunting, so always tomorrow. Actually tomorrow is the last day to hunt before a 5 day monsoon hits here which will last till the last day of the season in this area. No one at the camp, HB tagged out in Louisiana and went home at noon to fish a evening bass tourney. Last week he did finish first and DJ finished 2nd a week before. All is well, got to get DJ his first bird this year. Thanks for the congrats.
