Here's a few picks from tonight's hunt, Lots of birds, Lots of wind and a neighbor target practicing made for a short hunt. We still had a great time!!

My son Tress watching some gobblers coming out of the timber across the field.

 

These deer have come out both days and started chasing the turkeys around.

 

Big time wind today, This hen was getting blown around.

 

So was this Jake!! We couldn't see a beard on this guy so my son passed on him. There was some bigger birds across the field.

 

He came into 20 yds  :thumbsup:

Nice    :clapper:

Tracy,

I'm super happy for you.  Sometimes things happen just when you need them to in life.  I would say this is good medicine for your heart!
Looking forward to chasing something around with you next fall or spring!

Thanks for sharing all the cool pictures.
