Ole_270 had them pretty well patterned, and my 9 year old, Madden, laid the wood to a 9.5” bearded gobbler. We had to watch them strutting from about 300 yards across the creek for a solid hour before they came by the blind.

Single shot .410 with #9 TSS at about 7 yards.

His first bird ever was last year, this one was just a fuzz smaller.

Awesome, congrats

Nice Job !!

Heck of a bird as well - you are spoiling the kid !

Fantastic!
Wonderful picts too!

Good deal. Kentucky's youth season is this weekend, and one of the granddaughters is going. As a matter of fact, I'm headed out in a few minutes to listen for the gobbling, and to locate where they are. It's always nice to see the kids learning how to hunt.

Congrats all around!

Contest winning photos, congrats all around!

Very nice indeed.

Great job!!
