Morning quickie

[FLS]

I was pulling out of my drive this morning to go to work and noticed some turkeys in the field beside my house. About the time i got binos on them, a couple went into full strut. Pulled back up drive, ran in and grabbed my gun, leafy jacket, and box call. I used a fence row to get within 100 yds, set up, and let out a few soft yelps. Birds responded immediately. A couple of clucks and three yelps had them headed my way. As the first bird got to me I soft yelped with just my voice and he popped into full display. A load of 7s put him down hard. Living out in the sticks has its advantages.

Congrats! I’d be lying if I said I haven’t thrown on a pair of flip flops and grabbed my turkey gun and took off to catch a couple near the barns before. Right place right time seems to always win.

I see turkeys occasionally in my field, but for whatever reason out local population has expanded exponentially.
Im spoiled, I can hunt deer and turkeys right out my back door.

Yea growing up on dads farm there were deer and turkey everywhere. Was almost easy filling tags. Then I started traveling to hunt different states and it sets in just how good I had it growing up.

I wouldn’t trade living out in the sticks for anything. Congrats!
