Well...I didn't get a turkey but I DID get to hear one gobble. Jerry and I had pulled over in a promising area and I stepped out of the suzuki and used my box call. As soon as I stopped it gobbled. It wasn't very far away. I looked at Jerry and he looked at me. We jumped over the bank and set up under a tree. I called again and it gobbled back. My friends had seen a large turkey in the area and so I was hoping this was it. I waited a few minutes and then called again. It gobbled AGAIN! The adrenaline was pumping. A couple of minutes later I called again. Nothing. I waited and called again....nothing. He had shut up. He must have figured us out. Oh well....it was exciting.
I'm heading to Idaho to try my hand at getting a bear with my Bow next weekend. Jerry is already over there trying to get things set up. Apparently the area has a lot of hunters right now. One camp claims to have picked up 3 large bears yesterday. Hopefully there is still one left for me next week. I'll keep you posted.
