I had a great time hunting with Rick. Lots of birds and lots of fun. Rick and his wife Wendy made this a memorable hunt for me. I'll definately be back!

Yep that's me in the picture! First morning of the hunt had me and Rick in a blind right in the middle of two different groups rooster birds. A little before daylight the group in front of us (mostly hens) pitched off and started feeding. Rick had told me there was a few nice toms in the group behind us. We listened to them gobble back and forth for a little bit then, about an hour or so after daylight the toms behind us made there way towards us. They passed within 10 yards and I took the lead bird. After pics and cleaning the bird Rick was awesome enough to take me out predator hunting! Had a blast and highly recommend Rick for and exciting memorable hunt!

Sounds like he took pretty good care of you but last year he was cooking the turkeys  :yike:. I think he credited to power lines in the front yard but he was still cooking them  :chuckle:

Great bird by the way and congrats  :tup:.

Ya, not only cooked him but sliced and diced as well (blew him apart to the four winds). :EAT:
