Drew killed a good one this am! We were setup for Addy to do the shooting and Drew was gonna bat cleanup. This old tom made the mistake of giving Drew a shot. One of the most epic days in the turkey woods that I've experienced in 30 years of chasing these things! We almost had Addy one as well, the one with Drew's gobbled at the shot, lol. It has been a day that we will surely always remember! That 1st hr of daylight that we experienced was unreal and I can't even begin to explain the events..unbelievable!!!

If you couldn’t tell, I was a bit excited. Turkeys don’t normally do that to me, I just couldn’t keep it to myself!
Congratulations again, Drew. I’m glad you 3 got to share a morning to remember. TOO good!

The boy and I should have doubled this morning. Went from epic to cluster in the blink of an eye.

Fantastic! Seems the good times always get cut short somehow... turkey hunts are often ruined with work obligations or a nap.
Congratulations Drew! Heck of a nice bird!

My buddies hunt from a couple days ago - some items to keep in mind as you watch this...he bagged a mature tom, with a bow.
- the decoys are placed at 7 yards. the three mature toms pass between the blind and the decoys... maybe 3-4 yards
- he had never been turkey hunting before, gun or bow
- he had never heard a turkey gobble in the woods prior to that morning
- Yes, that's him hyperventilating about 0:45 into it...
- He got a mature tom -just off this camera when they came about 1:30 into the video - you'd never know if from the the other two and the the last tom after the shot molests the decoy. - the shot on the Tom coming up...

Addy and I were setup on a couple before daylight. They only gobbled a few times on the roost and went silent after flying down. We never heard or seen them after fly down...back out tomorrow and we may tweak our setup. Turks being turks today....lol

Our state forests are opening back up on Sat. So I may go buy a tag for Saturdays. So see what happens...

So yesterday I was already considering going on Sat before the announcement that state forests would be opening... So I took a ride up to Delaware Water Gap Recreational Area which is owned by the federal govt. Comming out of the woods I see a SUV drive by and stop and back up and pull in next to me... Female park ranger gets out and gives my truck the once over... I emerged from the woods and announce my presence... I stopped maybe 20 yds. from her and we chatted for over a 1/2 hr... I gave her a little history lessen of the area she patrols every day... It was truly a pleasure talking with her...

Yup, I saw her also....I’m a little younger so I was able to “talk” for a couple hours.

Fury.... Yeh I know... I have you by a few years... You'll get there someday... But back to the young lady... I'd rate her better than the one picturedView attachment 100721

I was shocked... Gorgeous and don't think she was fake like many young girls...
I heard one bird far off on the opener. Been hunting hard and have yet to even hear a single gobble since then, not even on the roost. First time in 20 years I didnt fill a tag in the first week.....hell didnt even get to work a bird. Not sure if it's all the pressure or what but I'm beginning to think that thr birds are not even there. Haven't heard much shooting either. It's a major bummer cause my passion is talking to turkeys. I think I may just pick up the fishing rod for awhile.
