Sometimes the gobble as much as a Merriam's. This hunt was in May and the hens where on the nest and he was lonely.

 :) Really???? Have I got a deal for you..just kidding....Scott your too easy!  LOL   At least say top ten record book merriam or Rio...that might be more fair for an Westside Eastern. Of course after all the pics you posted its easy right!  Like brushing your teeth.  LOL A father/daughter hunt however sounds memorable.  I remember my eastern was with my DAD..he watch me call it in and shoot it.  It was cool he was there, it also completed my WA Slam..Memorable Moment for me. I like that pic of your dad..cool.
Wild Turkey, Walleyes, Whitetails and Wapiti..These are a few of my favorite things!!
