Great bird! What trumpet call is that? I’ve got to get my hands on one someday.

24HCF in its entirety, is solely responsible for why my children do not have college funds, my mortgage isn't paid-off and why I will never retire early enough to enjoy the remainder of my life.

Congrats, the birds are active for sure. I was not sure with the early spring and 2 week later start what it would be like, but they are sure active...
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

Man im sick im done . This hunt was 2 longbeards alone. I sat quiet after i shot for about 10 minutes. Other tom started blistering a ridge top about 80 100 yards where these were roosted. I coulda slipped in next morning on him. Hes probably still gobbling lol
