Went out with a buddy this morning for a quick hunt before work. Just before light, we found ourselves absolutely SURROUNDED by Toms gobbling and Hens yelping from their roosts. Ten minutes after the sun crested the horizon this little fella came a runnin' in to the calls and put on a short show. He got suspicious of the decoy set-up and was being tempted by a hen down the hill, so the decision was made to take him. It was a quick/short hunt but a FANTASTIC morning!



He had an average beard (9") and decent spurs...


Thought a couple of you here might enjoy the pics.;)

(Sorry, I didn't take any of my Busse-kin blades out with me today. My smallest Kin-blade these days is my RMD, so I left it at home. For those interested, the knife is an AEB-L caper by Kestrel Knives - norcalblacktail. I swear the knife is lighter than the 550 paracord that's wrapped around the handle.)

Gobble Gobble....What's not to like about Spring Turkey hunts....Great Morning indeed Congrats....:thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Good stuff mate....I don't get to do much shooting before I get to work each day ... ;)
 
Great job--that's a good bit more beard than what I'd call a "little fella". Not exactly a jake. LOL

Nice gobbler!!! :thumbup:
 
You sound like me during deer season. I enjoy turkey hunting, but I'm not very good at it. Thanks for the pics. Sounds like fun.
 
Yes! Great looking Spurs and Beard. Beautiful turkey and what a way to start the day. Congrats!

Ohio spring season opens next week, I can't wait.
 
Thanks Guys, it was a good morning. I found a Wild Turkey Taco recipe I'm going to try tonight. So jdigi101...I hope so!;)
 
Figured I better make up for the lack of Busse content in my first post. Since we all like strippers:eek: (Huh?!?.. Wha...???), here's a nude bird with nekkid INFI...


Putting the PERFECT 10 to work...


The bird was bigger than I thought. These are just the premium cuts...


Now we're cookin'...


MMMmmmmmm Soft Tacos (Wild Turkey, Salsa Beans, Dos Quesos, Fresh Spinach, Tomato and Secret Spicy Cool Sauce)...


Corn tortilla chips on the side. Yep.... T'was a good night!:thumbup:
