Thanks so much my friends! I had a chance to go back to the same farm today with an unfilled tag but chose to sleep in and make the family breakfast. I then went to church and thanked God for giving me a life where I have family and friends a man could be proud of    :campfire:  

Besides, I think after that hunt it might have been a letdown. Thanks again for reading my yarn!

Got my gear turned around and a "certain" arrow 1st in the quiver for my hunt at Ray's. It will be ready for hogs, turkey, 'yotes and any legal critter! I am pumped reading all the turkey hunting stories here on Tradgang. What a place!

Thanks! Thanks for the heads up on that ghillie John. I used it during deer season a few times and it is a great tool during a stalk. It seemed to work great the 3 days I used it turkey hunting as I had birds in my lap 2 of the 3.
