Big ol' Rio drinks Poison!!
« on: April 08, 2010, 06:47:35 PM »
Here's my opening morning bird.  Hunting with my buddy Sean, who stole the original "Poison" call from me... *wha* We put the flock to bed the night before and set up right in front of them.  There were two big boys roosted with an uncountable number of hens and jakes and when they woke up it sounded like a dang fall hunt.  We really got to put the calls through paces before and after flydown as the hens did not want their boys headed our way!!  Well they came in any way, and the only thing that kept us from doubling up was.........appearently, I didn't count to three!!  Sorry Buddy, next one's yours!!!

21#'s 10" and 1 1/4"

Again, ignore the date stamp on the pics!  The wife has since fixed it for me...

Steve



It's the only bird I hunt that will actually stand there and let me shoot him...

Awesome bird man!  That call is amazing and glad it was the death of a bird.

I hear more and more where someone forgets to count to 3, but that'll teach your buddy to take your call next time  ROTFLMBO

I'm pumped and ready to hit the woods now!

I've been in one of those "count to 3" situations ... :-\

... when I picked up my gun (1) / when I clicked off my safety (2) / & when I shot & killed the 1st bird (3) ...  ;D

    "I thought everybody knew that one"  ...  ::)  ......    ROTFLMBO  ...   ;)
