Title: Osceola Before Work This Morning
Post by: Stoned on April 03, 2015, 01:24:47 PM

Shot an Osceola this morning before work. I probable had not been sitting more than 15 minutes when I shot him. I heard a gobble to my left an knew it was close. I did a couple of tree-yelps on the edge of my slate call and he came right to me. Beard 10.5 inches and the spurs were 1.25 inches. Did not weight him, but he had a good heft to him. It was a great way to start the morning; one more to go in Florida. I am headed to Tennessee next week.
