Little Creek Calls Report post Posted April 20 My son made a great shot on this Tom opening morning. It was fun to hear him gobble when he was really close, it was so loud you can almost feel it. He strutted for us for like 15 minutes. I was happy my son was patient and waited for the right opportunity and got a clean one shot kill. This is his third turkey and it is fun to see him get so excited. I am glad I get to share these hunts and memories with him each year. 24 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted April 20 We called one 250+ yards across a big opening but he stared circling us at about 70 yards. Close but no cigar. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twigsnapper Report post Posted April 20 We had a bird going this morning. I was quickly reminded how bad I am at turkey hunting. First time Jackson has been close to a gobbler, he’s hooked. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congrats to those who punched tags. We got into birds and gobbles and had a blast but couldn’t seal the deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So true, after the Sunday morning hunt, my son suggested I find a call that I can be more consistent with. He said, " Dad, you don't sound like the actually hens, maybe you should try a box call" He had the nerve to tell me this after I called in toms on two separate setups... No dead big for us but we had a blast. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
