I heard one gobble and seen about 5 hens after the opening day so I decided to bag it for this year and do more fishing. Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime

My goal was to shoot one in the head/neck area and the Magnus broadheads do make that a little easier but seems like they never keep their head still long enough for a shot, hence the two previous misses LoL. I always have better luck on evening hunts and that was the case with this bird...called in a Tom and three Jake's around 6:10 and as soon as they saw the decoys they committed and came running in. At 17yds I drew back and got busted by one of the Jake's and had to rush my shot a little more than I'd like to but in the end it all worked out. Not my biggest turkey but definitely one I am proud of! 19lb 1oz 9.5" beard 7/8" spurs
