1st Spring Bird
On saturday morning I took my father in law up to the ANF for turkey. Pulled off along side the road to listen at about 20 till 6 and heard on as soon as we opened our doors. Ended up hearing six but 2 were pretty close so we snuck in and set up between both of them. As it got daylight out I could see the tom strutting and gobbling in the tree. 5 till 6 he hit the ground with some hens. Wasn't sure if he was gonna come in untill I started purring and I think that ****ed off the hens 'cause they came in too. About a 30 yard shot and my 54 y.o. father in law became the happiest man in penns woods for the day. To make it better he was a double beard. 20 lbs, 7 3/4 & 2 1/2 beards, and 1 1/16 hooks.
