First impressions:

Shot a nice one a few years ago in the rain. That was the year I bought a tree canopy and it worked nice. Only bad deal about Wednesday is the wind might be a little too high for my liking, I'm a no go in 20 mph winds. Colder weather is a plus though for sure.

Rattled a few times today. Soon spotted a 140 class 10 pt checking me out from across the field. He calmly walked into the timber so I hit the rattle bag again, grunted a few times and shut up. Hoped he'd take the timber around and end up checking it out from quartering downwind as I've had that...

Great bird. Congrats!

A whopper by anyone's standards. :way:

Nicely done!!

Might give them a shot. Thanks for the tip!

Great advice here. I'm no expert but I try to avoid run and gun if lacking the gun. Some exceptions can be made here but while 80 acres isn't small, its not huge either. If you spook them very often, it could become even more difficult with the birds favoring the chunk you aren't hunting...

Way to go man. Great story.

Wow, quick thinking. A little Macguyveresque.

Well, it's been a slow 1.5 yrs for this turkey hunter. Last year I went 0 for 2 and I was beginning to fear this same this year. I've mentioned on a few occasions how the birds have been skirting my setup badly for some time now so I decided to employ a new tactic last evening...the old...

They've been skirting my DB matrix for the last 2 seasons since an idiot horned in and started doing dumb things. Jumping out of the blind and giving chase, etc. He hasn't hunted since 3 yrs ago but it completely changed the face of hunting for me. Used to double on regular occassion, now they...

Nicely done sir. Very nice bird and great pics as always.

I'm going with the DSD jake and standing hen combo. Might throw a lying hen in there now and again to mix it up. If they get real skittish, I'll switch to the DSD hen only. Last year nothing would work and I was this close to setting up the dekes 100+ yds downstream so when the birds started...

Nice job man, congrats.

Wow, I believe that's the longest bow/turkey shot I've ever even read about. Pretty incredible. Congrats.

Just spit a small amount of beer on my keyboard after reading the title alone. LMAO but would rather this didn't happen to me. :o

2 generations of turkey slayers score in the half hour. Love it.

She looks proud and I'm sure you are too. The blind rules.

Dandy bird. Way to get it done on public. :way:
