Im gonna call this one a 2 yr old. I got on a good gobbler this morning but he had all the female company he could handle an try as I might I could not get the hens to come in so away they went. I stayed in the general area all day but never heard another bird till I got nearly back to the truck at 2pm. I stopped to call one more time on the ole lynch box an BOOM he was about 150 yrds. I cut the distance in half an called this love sick 2 yr old in to about 22/23 yrds and let Achilles do the rest. I shot some of the beard off but it aint the first time. He has a 8 inch beard with half inch spurs an will go about 16/17 lbs. I shot him at 2:30 Just a good fun bird.



Nothing beats the feel of a handmade southern iron mounted flintlock on a crisp frosty morning
