Good for you!

The public land I hunt was swamped with hunters this year; all those folks on Covid Vacation I guess. I heard not a single gobble, and only one shot in two days. Doesn't take much to push the birds (or deer) off onto private land across the river.

My biggest bird to date:

This tom was well over 20 lbs. Taken with a 1300 Winchester Black Shadow with 22 inch barrel and rifle sights, a Primos XF tube and Winchester LongBeard #4s at 17 paces.

A lone hen came in 5 minutes earlier to investigate my poor soft calling then blurted out a loud seven note assembly call. She did a better job calling him in than I could have. whistle cool whistle
