finally on the board in Alabama
« on: April 03, 2013, 01:10:57 PM »
Have had 4 really tough days with lots of stories for bumped birds by others,farm equipment and very cold weather, not to mention my mountain birds have not busted up yet. We need the right weather to get them set off !!!
Went to Alabama to a buddies place this morn. Gobbeling was not good early, but got a response from a butternut longbox and it was on. I really dont know, but there were at least 6 or 7 thay came in with this bird. When the shot rang out, a couple flew, but 2 or 3 actually stood there and gobbled at the shot. It was cool to see. This one took a ride home with me. He made 11.25" and had 1 1/4 " spurs on him.
