4.15.2014 Bird

DarkArcher

Lung Buster
Was fortunate enough to get a good show from this bird and call him into our lap before pulling the trigger.

Had 6-8 birds gobbling all around us on the roost yesterday morning. They all hit the ground and decided to go completely in the other direction. We packed up and tried to get in front of them on the opposite end of the farm. As we set up we could hear that they had all crossed the creek and moved back towards our original set up, here we go! We followed them slowly through the woods and were able to get within 200 yards of them before we made our final approach.

We snuck to the top of the hill and this guy was about 100 yards out, a few calls later and he strutted all the way in on a string to about 12 yards. It was a fun hunt and he gave us the full show! :D
