Hooked up with Gundude this morning to evaluate his expertise calling techniques. We were done by 7:05AM. 27 pounds, 10.75" beard, 1.5" spurs. Another great memory made with a great friend. cool

Memory won't be so great after you receive the invoice from old hickory lake guide service...I ain't cheap!

This was a run and gun hunt...
Well sorta.. the only time I run is to the bathroom..

I had a plan in my head and it worked out for a change..god blessed us with a perfect hunt and then decided we needed a shower..we were soaked... I love to call birds.. and for the second time this year our plan was perfect...

( one bird got away because my son loaded up with low brass #6... but our plan was perfect.. I digress)

Turkeys are easy and mushrooms remain elusive.

Great bird Jeff.. that crap doesn't happen every day!!

I think I was more excited than anybody on that hunt...

Everything else I hunt this year will begin at noon and end before my 3pm nap.. hunt on....

A side note ...pics really dont do this bird justice.. he was almost as wet as we were...

Hard to believe I get excited about trying to outsmart something that has a brain the size of a pea... .

Even more troubling is what that says about me/us.....good day outside
