Here is a dandy tom that I got on my trail camera I called him in on monday but he stayed 12 yards behind my blind and strutted and never came in my shooting lane. If I could use a shotgun he would be dead but I can only use my bow in this area. Cant wait til morning!!!

He's a beauty. What does his beard look like? Hard to see with the shadow.

Nice looking bird.  I can tell you why your getting plenty of shots of him..... Its that barley hay out in front of the game cam... :chuckle:
Turkeys love scratching for seed.

I'm thinking that hay is spread out there so when the bird hits the ground it won't bruise that nice grain fattened meat. :EAT:

The hay is from last deer season and I think the turkeys are looking for some leftover corn from my feeder I used last december archery season. I dont hunt over this spot because of the corn. I usually have the trail camera set up here almost year round and have got some great pics of my local deer. If you didnt see my double bow kill post I am tagged out this spring looks like this big guy will have to wait until fall or next year.  ;)
