Well I finally managed to bag my bird today. This is my third year tring to bag a tom and everthing finaly came together. Couldn't get out early this morning and almost decided not to go at all. About 11:30 I took a drive out to 7 acres I own and took a stroll to the back of the property, hoping to catch some bird in te hay feild across the fence. Well I got to the back of my property, corner of the woods and small feild and hit the box call a couple times not expecting a reply. Havent had a bird answer sence the season started on Monday, they would gobble on the rost but as soon as fly down they would shut up and not answer.To my suprise a tom gobbled right back at me from about 150 yards south of me. I went about 30 yards into the woods and set up figuring he would be across the fence in the hay feild. Sure enough after about 20 min. of gobbleing and me answering him he finally came into view in the hay feild. I watched him fan and figured with a nice even tail he wasn't a jake and the rush was really on. At 35 yards I put the bead on his head and lights out. He went 20lbs, 8 inch beard and 3/4 inch spurs. Not the biggest bird in the woods but I was sure happy.
