Managed to get my 2 spring turkeys one on 4-19 and the other 5-17. Had lots of other close calls including two jakes that I let slide 3 times before my uncle pulled a double on them and finished his season in 1 shot. Both of my turkeys I stalked after they ignored my calling. I did call in a decent tom from about 200 yards (which pleased me to no end) but it came in at about 90 degrees from where I was expecting and he caught me slowly swinging on him. The first turkey had an 8" beard which was a personal best, and the second one had a 9" beard another personal best. Not much in the way of spurs though barely over 1/2" on both birds. I did get to see the second one strut and gobble from about 25 yards for a little bit before I blasted him, that was neat.
