My brother's second bird of the year. I didn't take a picture of the limb I blasted yesterday, though I should have. Through the scope, all was clear. But there was a limb like 4ft in front of my barrel that I centerpunched. It took out my entire pattern. Damn. Downfall #1 of the red dot scope.

Thanks we have had a really good season! Everybody I wanted to get a bird has, it is all sidehill from here. yelp, Two of the birds have been to the Jim Buck striker.

Don't ever lose it..put it somewhere safe.

Well I haven't made one flop yet but did manage to call this nice Tom in for my dad to about 25 yards. His Mossberg did the rest.

Camp David 2012 turkey report. Denny showed up the first Thursday after the opener and Dan showed up with his 12 year old son on Friday. Same days the birds stopped gobbling.  :bash:. Lots of hiking on Friday afternoon produced nothing. Saturday evening a flock of hens and a jake wondered by Dan's blind and his 12 year old son bagged his first bird with his 20 Ga.  :tup:. Denny and I hiked about a mile and sat in a favorite turkey "zone" for about 1/2 an hour and we finally heard a gobble. He continued to gobble when I answered and we got ready in the pop-up blind. 10 minuted later the tom showed up and Denny had his first tom.  :tup: I patterened my bird for 4 days. They were roosting above the cabin. Had a few close calls, but when he came to the top of the hill chasing some jakes at about 25 yds, I sent a load of #5s his way and the game was over.

Nice looking birds and cabin.  No wonder you had a hard time finding birds with those heavy green sunglasses.   :chuckle:

April 30th bird.  My first longbeard.  9" beard and just over 1 inch spurs.  I really owe the bird to my son Bow Boy.  Just as he went back to get my backpack that I left under a tree at the last spot this gobbler came out of the woods.  Rather than spook the bird Bow Boy held back and let me eventually take this one.  Now I need to help get him his first with his bow.
