Title: Wifes first long beard
Post by: kevinlisa06 on May 07, 2012, 10:07:43 PM

Friday and Saturday was tough hunting with 40 mile per hour winds in Central Wa. Sunday morning we slept in a lil bit and got up to the canyons we wanted to hunt around 9am. I decided to hit a call and got 2 gobbles under 100 yards away. We set up and watched the birds cross the road to our left then back doored us so Lisa got spun around and I called the birds into 40 yards and she knocked down her first tom. He was bout 18 pounds with a 9 1/4 inch beard and no spurs unfortunately. Hope I got the pic to post if not I will try again tomorrow.

Nice tom! When you say Central WA, can you ballpark? I live in Utah, but own some land by Wacounda and would like to turkey hunt next spring up there.
