3 Generations Gobbler

[TerryMayberry]

My father and I have been hunting turkeys since Ohio opened up a season 20+ years ago. 2years ago, I started taking my boy with us on opening day. This year we finally scored on a nice longbeard. My son was excited but I think I was more so.

This thunderchicken hung up on us and made us work but we finally got it done when a second gobbler started approaching from another direction.

PS: Public land in Eastern Ohio

Congrats on getting it done...and on public ground! Nothing better than having family with you on the hunts. Priceless...

So much better harvesting a bird with someone else (especially when its your dad and your son). Public land hunting is no picnic but over the years we've done pretty well.
