Nice bird, great pic. Those two sweeties couldn't be much more adorable, makes your bird look bigger next to the shorties.

Nice Bird!! Must have been the "Slut" call that I really wanted from Dan??...I've still got another one of his-it was the only thing I could get the birds to gobble too last week!

No problem danf, I was not using a decoy and touched off the left side of the box call a couple times to let this bird, 150 yards away strutting, know where I was and shut up. I was located on a fence corner seperating two big fields using the woods and an Ameristep Intimidator ground blind for cover. After about 5 more minutes of strutting the bird turned my way and started coming. Took him at 15 yards as he attemtped to walk by the corner to the other field. I've had a smile on my face ever since. Thanks for the call!
