With a busy Hospital Schedule this week was
able to squeeze in a late morning hunt.
Left the house at 10am this morning whimping
to go early & to cold. Have to be careful with a
Compromised immune system.
Made the 15 min drive to one of my favorite late morning Turkey Woods. I was bungled up
Like the Abolminal Snowman & walked to a vantage point to make my 1st call. Nuttin Talkin !! Made a few more series of calls with
a box call, the woods was quiet as a church mouse other than the very cool wind making
the trees sing me a tune !!
Walked to another spot & called into a deep
what I call a canyon, actually hollow, nuttin honey !! It was 10:45am. Walked back to the
Truck, cased my gun, threw my fold out seat
& call bag in the back seat & headed to another area. Arriving at my 2nd stop, it was
11am, still have a hr or so hunt. This is my kind
of the so called "Runnin & Gunning" in my truck, lol Uncased my gun, got my shoulder
bag & seat & walked to a small knoll where I could call into a hollow, no flat ground in this part of WV, ya gotta be part Mountain Goat !!
1st call I made a Gobbler responded with a thundering gobble, it was 11:20. Walked to
a lil clearing & made another call with my fav
mouth call, he lit up & had moved up the ridge
some, guessing he was still 75 yds over the steep ridge. Time to set up. Made a few soft yelps & he was gobbling before I stopped calling closing the distance quickly. Time to
put my gun to the shoulder. Saw his full fan
appear bout 40 yrds over the crest of the ridge
He was now in full view long necking to find his mate. As I squeezed the trigger on my gun,
I was thinking about my boys, grandsons & friends who say I have a lucky Golden Horseshoe stuck in my Butt as the Big Gobbler
now lay motionless on the woodland floor, it was 11:40am !! He certainly was a big Mountain Gobbler, 22lbs, 10.5" Beard, 1 1/2"
& 1 7/16" Spurs ! Treasured Memories & a Gift from God !
When I started my sons & grandsons hunting
many moons ago, I would say to them, "there's an ole Gobbler out there with his claws wrapped around the limb for the last, it was on this day !!

A very Emotional Turkey & Hunt today !
Wasnt sure if I was going to get out in the Turkey Woods this season or future seasons.
I was Recently diagnosed with Mesothelioma
& the Chemotherapy Treatment that scheduled for 2day was postponed till friday.
Sons & Grandsons had their hunts mapped
out for this morning, old Pap stayed in the fart
sack. I left the house about 9:45 ,drove to a buddy's place 10 mins. from home.
Made a few calls with no response. Packed it
up & drove to my niece Sherri's place, 5 mins
from where I just left. Made a few calls, no gobbles. Made a few tx messages to see if
the boys were having any luck. Quiet morning
in the areas they were hunting. I walked out a point behind my niece's house & called again.
A bird gobbled across a deep hollow from me.
Waited for a few minutes & called again barely
hearing his gobble, it was 11:10. After bout 10 mins. I called again with a box call & he gobbled, he was in the hollow below me,
He was on the move. I was still standing when
I called with a mouth call, he was moving up the ridge. I sat down by a big Wild Cherry tree
& was playing the waiting game now. He knew
where the calls were coming from. I was about to make a call with my mouth call when he let
out a resounding gobble, I made a few soft yelps as I was raising my gun. Saw his white head a few seconds later as he was making his approach ever so cautiously. He walked into my shooting lane as the woods was very
thick with mutafour vegetation. It was 11:55am. As I knelt down, I was overcome with
emotion & Thanked the Good Lord for giving
another day & a Beautiful critter we call the
Wild Turkey !!
