Tune Up Tom
« on: May 01, 2010, 07:41:00 PM »
Last week Rod Jenkins was doing a clinic in the area and he stayed at my house.

 

While he was here he gave me a form tune up as I was having a few issues.

 

We had a lot of fun and my shooting got right back on track. A few days later a tom came walking by my blind and I got to see how the tune up worked under pressure.

Denny the only birds I see that big in Michigan are white and on farms. That is a HOG! I hope to revisit with Rod also, after attending a clinic last year. Glad to see he is back to teaching again.
