Here's a couple more pics now that I'm back home. What a day, and to think the whole thing lasted about 10 minutes. Was heading to my blind, gobbles came out of the valley below me. I let a few aggressive yelps and my bird and another tom came over the going nuts, I never made it to the blind, sat down and the madness began. I dont think ive ever been so geeked, would like to know how high my heart rate got, I was shakin.So much fun!

Thanks for all the kind words and happy hunting!

The deer are exactly where you find them, and no where you dont!

Congrats! Great bird. It took me 5 years to seal the deal on my first as well. I promise the next ones will be no less exciting!
