Title: Thanks TJ from Mr. E

Don't you just love new fired up young turkey hunters. RkLu  Here is an opening day picture of TJ's third bird with one of my Gator's.  This is just a note to say say Thanks!!!! a young college boy, fired up on TURKEY HUNTING. -- I was doing seminars this week in Oxford, Ms. and TJ pointed me to a bottom in public woods similiar to this one Wed. afternoon when I had about an hour and a half to hunt.   Blinded up upon walking out in this bottom, started a series about 15 minutes later and after about 10 minutes had  a nice 3 yr. old closing to 38 steps.  I could not get a shot.   He put some trees on me and pulled up and stopped just behind them.  When the hen did not show up he moved out of range behind the trees.  Hit a couple of gobbler yelps and he gobbled going away.  TJ was down further and later he said, "Mr. E that bird sounded like he was in your lap."  All I could say was "thanks for a chance to kill a fine bird, He was in my lap."
