Title: My Opening Day
Post by: WldWldWest on April 02, 2012, 09:08:07 AM
Rolled out this morning with all my best friend's (By myself) to see if my bird's went to sleep where I left them yesterday...Low and behold they did! Saw alot of turkey's,  Killed this one but was holding out for a real pig but he wasnt having anything to do with my calls or set-up but this one stayed within range for 30 minutes or so strutting around so finaly I couldnt take it anymore and he was starting venture out of the Bang-Flop zone so I Bang-Floped him...9"beard and 1" spur's. After which the bird's never left the field so that meant I couldnt leave the blind without educating the rest so I sat there from 6:55 when I shot mine to 9:30 waiting on the rest to leave the field, In that time I had 7 definite shooter's walk into my decoy's at various time's. In all I saw 13 Gobbler's and an untold amount of hen's.

Nice going, Doug!!     Throw up a FnF sign and put that puppy in the Turkey Contest.    :readthis:

I sure hope I see more than what I have the past two seasons.   Its been pretty discouraging.

Nice Going on the bird...you guys are killing me with these early season birds. I cant hunt until the end of April. I suppose that will give me some time to get that new muzzleloader shooting straight :eyebrow:

Congrats!!
