Finally got to pull the trigger

[Gus]

The birds around my place haven't really been gobbling that much and when I could actually get one to answer my calling, when I would try to get closer or get him to answer again they would always shut up. So the last couple of weekends I have been sitting around my cameras where I always get their pics during the week, but on the wkends all I would see would be hens. Yesterday I walked around the pasture and never could get one to answer me, so I went and sat by one of my cameras. About 7:30pm I seen a hen coming my way, so I got the shotgun up and ready just in case. Finally I seen a red head bobbing thru the weeds towards me, so when he got within range I pulled the trigger on the 835 and down he went. Then I looked to my right and seen another red head running for cover, not sure how big he was, but I sure am happy to have finally got a gobbler this year. Weighed in at 18 pounds, 6 1/2 beard and both spurs 5/8

Knew setting up near the cam where you were getting so many pics of birds would pay off for you. Congratulations Tonya.

Congratulations. Sounds like you adapted to what the conditions dictated and was rewarded by taking an awesome trophy. I think that one of the keys to being a consistently successful turkey hunter is being able to adapt like you did. Good job!

Congrats!!! With all the turkey pics you was getting hard to believe you was having trouble.....but when the birds wont talk it sure does make turkey hunting hard!
Congrats again on the bird
