That was very cool. Good job were you a military sniper in the past. Because you have got some stalking skills.  :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

I hear you there calling for snow here tonight! That will slow the gobbling down.

Once about 5 years ago I was scouting a new farm b4 bow season and did almost the same thing!  Nobody ever believed that I walked to within 10 yards of a sleepin gobbler on a log in the midday sun!  But you my friend have the pics to back it up! Way to go!  Still kind of surreal isn't it?

Awesome story, Awesome pics!!! I did a similar stalk on a sleeping red fox. I too got within 10 feet of him. Just kept a huge Beech tree between him and I as I approached.

About 18 years ago, I was riding on the back of a truck exploring new property to build a Hunting Plantation and sptted a couple of big toms in a green field. I had very little turkey knowledge at that time and didn't realize how amazing it was for me to be able to walk up on them.
I got out of the truck with my camera and took pictures as I walked in the wide open with no camo and just being quiet. I walked to within 15 yards of the two birds. We were all in the wide open, but these two guys were intent on whooopin each others arse.
Nice Pics Otto.
