The Alabama season started out pretty tuff, but things started coming around about two weeks ago. I haven't been able to hunt as much as I wanted due to school, but I manage to get in about 3-4 mornings a week.
Heres how I have done so far.
Twenty pound bird with inch spurs and a ten inch beard. He gobbled around 5:15 and then came in to a strutting decoy(homemade) and a hen. He hung at 80 yards and finally broke after some loud purring on my part and came right to the decoy. Flopped at 35 yards.
This Bird Went 23.6 pounds and had 1.25 inch spurs, but the beard was lacking at only 6 inches. This morning it was raining, the wind was blowing, and it was pretty chilly. We snuck through a swamp and cut this bird off at the edge of a field. Flopped at 54 steps.
One weekend left in the season, and finals are coming up. O well!
