COOSEFAN Report post Posted May 2, 2006 I wanted to share this with you all, it's my sister, Katie, and her first bird she got on Sun. Katie, my Bro-n-law and my dad were set up above the birds that were gobblin' and carryin' on down in a canyon shortly after fly-down. It took almost 45 minutes of calling to finally get 3 toms to within 40 yrds. She pounded this bird, and without being told, immediately jumped up, chased the tumbling bird back down the hill, and finished the job! She instinctively knew what needed to be done without being told and is amazing to see from a novice! I witnessed first hand her shooting a bear at 50 yrds in thick cover and before I could say anything, she jacked another round and heart shot the wounded bear, running, at close to 100 yrds, in a small opening finishing the job! She's got it in her blood, and she's good! We're all proud of her! Thanks, JIM Dad and Katie. This is the bear she whacked two years ago. It's obvious she now has a lucky t-shirt!
