Spring Turkey 2025

[Fletch]

Good luck to you and Sydney!
I may take a friend out tomorrow. He’s been trying hard all season to bag his first turkey but hasn’t had a bit of luck. I took him out one time last year. He missed two and I have really enjoyed giving him grief about that ever since.

Missed with the gun or bow... Man I don't know how you can miss with a gun... But... You know what they say: Everything happens in threes... So maybe he should go alone... Or it's gonna be a longggggg summer...

He missed with a gun. It really isn’t all that uncommon nowadays. People set up turkey specific guns that shoot really tight patterns… which I think is a mistake. Wasn’t the case with him since he was using my gun at the time. He claims there is something wrong with that gun - even though I’ve killed enough turkeys with it to fill the back of a truck. I killed the first turkey with it this year, sent him w pic and said “fixed the gun”.

Well good luck....

Caught up with a good one this morning. 11 inch beard 1.5 spur and the other spurs broke off

Congratulations, nice bird! But, there are 2 on the tailgate? What is the "rest of the story"?

Got to the shop this morning saw 2 birds in the field strutting with no way to get to them i figured I'd work for a little while and then give it a shot. Got him fired up about 11:45 and he came running in with a bearded hen and was dead at 12:15.

This is my first turkey. I'd tried before, but just needed some help

Hunted with Greg @switchhitter on Thursday morning, he called in a nice Tom for me. He was dealing with this guy for over an hour, it was an epic ride of ups and downs, huge excitement!

I'll post some pics Greg took and do a better write up later.
