Opening Day Maryland Bird


My son Hunter finally wanted to get up early and go turkey hunting with me. He picked a good day to go. We heard this bird gobble once on the roost then saw him going the other way about 200 yards away. A half an hour to 45 minutes later Hunter made a few calls on our new Coleman Game Calls glass over slate that Mitch and Curt sent us and this turkey was coming down the hill. Once he saw the decoys it was game over. He came running in and we smoked him. We got pretty good footage of him but he just started to step out of frame when I squeezed off the shot,but Hunter got to see his first turkey hit the ground and we had a great time. He had a 10" beard and 1" spurs.
