Next Saturday starts our turkey season and I'm really looking forward to it.

I was on the back porch before sun up this morning. Lots of gobbles around. Some really close, some distant - but I heard enough to make me smile.

My son turns nine today and this will be his first "real" season. He's hunted with me a few times, but he'll be a constant companion this year. That makes this season even better!

I'll hunt with friends too. Probably drink a few beers and eat well for the next few weeks.

I'm going to pattern a couple of guns today, load some more TSS, hang around with the birthday boy and cook a little with dad later.

It's going to a good day...and another great season!


I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!
