[caznik]

Day 1

Oh Man,

Got out of work this morning at 7:30am and headed out for the woods that I hunt. Took a long walk to the spot where I usally deer hunt and sat down at 8:15am. Got my mask on and my call out and gun pointed ready to where something maybe coming from. I used my call one time and herd a GOBBLE. I then waited for 15 sec. and called again and herd GOBBLE GOBBLE and that time it was really close. I sat my call down and it was 10 sec. later I seen it coming to me. It got up to me around 35-40 yards and took a shot with my 10 gauge and MISSED.. I couln't beleve it when I seen that darn turkey get up a run off. It was a pretty big one and yesssssss I know I did have turkey fever.

Now come on Rich thats suppose to be buck fever, not turkey fever. Were you hunting on your lease next to us? Leave a couple birds for my brother and I, we both have the second season. Let me know if you are seeing many on our side of the fence and maybe I can meet you out there and let you take a poke at them. What time are you normally out and about, I think I am headed that way tomorrow and I will drop that bow off to you.

Day 2

Went to a different woods across from my house to see if I couldn't get one there. I got set up at 8am and herd lots of them gobbling. Had one hen come up to me about 5 yards and seen a tom around 50 yards but no close shots. It was very nice out in the woods this morning and will try it again tomarrow morning.

Day 5

Well looks like I got my turkey this morning. I got out of work and raced to my woods next to huntingfool43's. I started walking in the woods towards the back part of it where I allways go deer hunting. Well all the time when I go spring turkey hunting I allways sneak up this big hill where I have to sit just in case I see any up there when I get there. Well as a snuck up the hill I seen one big tom about 20 yards in full strutt and his but pointed my way. I sat on my butt to get ready for the shot and waited for 5 min. for the tom to turn around. It wouldn't turn so I made a gobble noise with my mouth and then the toms tail feathers went down and his head and neck stretched out so I could make my shot. BANG I got my 2007 tom this year with my Remington SP-10 10 gauge. This tom was 21 lbs. and had a 9" beard with 1" spurs.

Caznik's Turkey

I dont see the turkey listed under caznik's catch! Whats up with that? are we just limited to fish?

I thought about doing the same thing exept I would list everything coons,oposoms, stray dogs, stray cats,etc. if you get it you list it.

Nice bird.

[NO MO BEGGEN]
