I got a nice opening day bird yesterday after the fog burned off.
A big bird had literally tortured me for 2 hours with a hen 200 yards away.i called in her 3 girlfriends but she stayed and he wasn't leaving her.
At 10:30 I had a raucous gobble to my calling.
Soon 3 toms came in and this guy strutted into the decoys to 25 yds...so only 2 left.

I shot a bird on the last day last year, but i was fortunate to harvest one on the first day this year. You never know I suppose so just enjoy every hunt.
My pics are too large to post other than this one.
I made stir fried turkey and mixed veggies tonight that was simply delicious.

Nice bird congrats. It can be frustrating being able to see them but them not wanting to play. That is until you made them mad!!!

Way to stick it out and make them come to see you.

And they spelled your name wrong on the tractor behind you!!!
