Congrats Mike!! I need a Rio and Osceola for my trad slam. So I guess Roger ate tag soup??? Guess I better go to the shop and get a full report on Monday.    ;)

SWP I called some good birds in for Roger and he called one in for himself that he couldn't get the shot he wanted. We had two jakes come in once and he fired a warning shot, just clipping some back feathers, another inch lower and he would have had him.
Had one big bird that I called in for him several times that was in shotgun range every time he came in but would not offer a good bow shot. I told Roger that I had spent whole seasons on birds like that one. He really gave us a show though!

Great job!  Looks like a great hunt in beautiful country!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Congrats Mike and good luck on your 4th bird of the slam!

Know what you mean about the tough to kill ones Mike. I called one in this morning for my daughter and told her to draw on him when he was about 10 yds away from us and 5 from the decoy and he turned and hightailed it. You just never know with turkeys.
