First Turkey Ever!
« on: May 16, 2019, 04:49:21 PM »
Just wanted to send a big shout out to everyone on this board. I've been reading all of the advice threads, and I was happy to get it done on Mother's Day!
This big boy was chasing a few hens, and when he saw my Jake decoy, he puffed up and came within 30 yards. I decided to leave the box call in the truck since I'm so new, and I'm happy I did!
