Don't shoot till you see the whites of their eyes. Which is pretty close considering you can't see them.    :bigsmyl:

my little piece of heaven. myself and Ron W own 5 acres just above this big ridge line! the top of the big rock ledge i'm standing on has 3 natural stone seats on the edge over looking ledges and flats below. i sit there often to collect my thoughts, smoke my pipe and recharge my life batteries.

Nice Pictures Ken.  I think I recognized a tree in one. wish I could have been there instead of Jwerk today regardless of turkey action.

Gotta ask.  No Bacon?   :dunno:

Nice!  I had "bark eater" in my possession for about 5 days last month! I was wondering who it's pappa was!  That's awesome. Glad he found his way home!  Looks like a great time too!!

Love that rock ledge spot in the Hardwood. That's my favourite kind of country. You folks are "greened up" better that us. Should "pop" up here after the rain forecast for the next few days.
Nothing to hunt though...
