Default FALL bird down
Left the house about 7:25 and was at the bush about 7:40.
Started my way in along a ditch that runs through the property with an idea of where I wanted to go. Found my tree and got my spot ready and sat down and NOPE I had to drop a DUFER first (DAMN TIM HORTONS COFFEE) so ventured 15 yrds away and did my deed and the hunt was on.
Didn't know what to expect but the birds started to yelp and cluck within a 100 yrds or so from me, so yelped back with a response back at me.
Afew more yelps and cutt once at them they started to move closer. Finally caught a glimpse of them and started to whine and scatch the leaves and a single hen broke from the flock and came to within 25 yrds of the barrel and my hunt was over by 8:30.
11 lbs right on



Craig

Congrats on a good bird. I loved to fall turkey hunt when I was younger and still would. Just don't seem to have the time now.
