First adult Oregon bird?
So, am I the first to post one of these?
Yeah, okay, I took a jake...but it's still dinner!
Set up on a flock of about a dozen birds. Had 3 jakes walking around in front of me within an hour. I let 'em walk for 5 minutes or so...waiting, waiting..."Where's Dad? Eh...the heck with it!"

Very nice!
Looks like its time to dip that mop in a bucket. Conditioner does wonders for my split ends

Nice Rob!
Mike, Unfortunately the old coot responsible for bringing the youngin was sicker-than-a-dog last weekend so we had to cancel. Fortunately, I think I was more disappointed than my son as he had a baseball game to focus on while I spent the nicest day of the spring in bed feeling like death warmed over. Rob got to go fishin instead.

Re: First adult Oregon bird?
Congratulations on the Turkey! Your dreadlocks need some help. Have you checked with your hair stylist?

Re: First adult Oregon bird?
Ya all go ahead and keep knockin' the hat. It's been on 3 turkey hunts since I made it. There's been 3 birds down on those hunts.
As my dad always said, "if it works, don't break it." Or something like that--I never really listened that closely.

Congrats
The hat is fine but I was curious about the daffodil blind you got.

I've never hunted for Wild Turkey, or eaten it does it really taste bad? Or really good like Duck and Goose  ?

It is good, you just have to be careful because it can dry out easily.

A bird in the yard is worth two in the bush. Congrats on the turk!
