Just wanted to share:
Well, we didn't score this year but came close a few times. On the first hunt, we had one fired up and coming in fast. He was only about 30 yards and just over a null where we could not see him. Unfortunately, at the same time nature called Josh and I saw the blind being unzippered. I guess when you gotta go ya gotta go. I was back about 15 yards from the blind calling. Kids................ :mad: :biglaugh: After that we had birds within about 40 yards but nothing would come any closer. We got out 4 times and would have been out a few more but I had one of my bi-annual sinus infections which knocked out a weekend for us. We only got completely skunked on one hunt.

Great memories, and good times thats what ita all about. Congratsn on a successful hunt :thumbsup: :clapper: :clapper: :clapper: :clapper:
Thanks guys, it sure was fun.
I killed a nice tom one day after waking up from a nap...didn't even look up at the decoy and just called. Couldn't believe it when he spit and drummed 18 yards away from me. Needless to say I look around after I wake up from a nap now before I call. Took me 20 minutes to get a shot at that bird after I woke up. Granted this was with a gun but I was in the open and didn't have much cover.
Sleeping isn't all bad...fact I think it's part of hunting if you ask me. Granted I'd kill some more animals if I didn't check my eyelids for pinholes so often.
Looks like he had fun...I missed two this spring and didn't catch a wink.
This fall I'm going to take my kids hunting...their 4 and 6, can't wait.
