Thanks Curt....

Killed this ole boy in the corner of a field I've been seeing some turkeys in the last couple of days...They haven't been gobbling but I knew they were there...Set up there this evening with the wind blowing 20-30 mph & just did some cold calling in hopes of luring one of em in to the decoys.Well it worked & this Tom came in to the decoys silent as a church mouse.He walked up to B-mobile & I put a Woodman in the sweet spot  at 10 steps....He's got multiple beards(haven't measured yet) & long spurs & weighs in at 25lbs.....So you fellars that aint hearing nothing keep after them,I know it's hard when their not gobbling but can still happen if your out there.....

Great bird, those big ones are hard to come by, and really hard to kill. Nice Job.
