LAST EDITED ON Apr-30-12 AT 05:40PM (MST)[p]That is quite a photo with all that snow for turkey season. Last year I stayed in bed on opening morning when it was like that! Good going and a picture that will be hard to beat!
 
I shot this bird at about 25 yards, 6:10 a.m. Saturday 4/29. I was sitting under the tree in the background. A nice two-year-old, 8.5" beard, 3/4 inch spurs, about 18 pounds, used a 12-gauge shotgun, #4 shot. Hubby (ColoradoBob) called him in along with three hens.

My entire goal of the turkey hunt was to have my son their with me if I pulled the trigger. We were fortunate and sealed the deal with a nice Tom; with probably the ugliest fan around.

My little Lioncub (JP) with his first turkey. Shot with a 20 gauge. Awesome pic of him carrying out the big bird (barely)! HA!

This is my 2007 Turkey with a bow and my son kept him at bay by calling while I got close enough for a shot. 41 yards

4 years later he got one for himself while I called him in.

LAST EDITED ON May-02-12 AT 01:08PM (MST)[p]Not a success pic but this is my youngest on a recent gobbler hunt. One of our setups is a small crater where I can hide him. He built a corral and was putting earthworms in it.LOL

LAST EDITED ON May-05-12 AT 10:23AM (MST)[p]I'd never taken a turkey with more than one beard until this week. My 22 1/2# Wisconsin public land bird had 4. 10", 6", 5 1/2" & 2". Total NWTF score of 85.125. Most of the properties I tried were overcrowded with hunters. This one was the exception.

Here is my bird this year. He came out of the roost in the trees in the background with his girls, and after about 30 minutes, they finally made their way over to me. The grass was pretty wet from the morning dew, which is why the bird looks totally soaked. This was the first time hunting this property, and it sure is beautiful.

Here he is with my son. I was back at the house before the family even woke up, and I brought donuts for breakfast!

Awesome pictures guys!

Both my boys scored Utah birds this year..
First was my 14 year old, He's harvested 3 now.
This one was BY FAR the biggest,, So I'm letting him
have it mounted..11" beard , biggest 'dead' bird I've ever seen.

The second bird was my 8 year olds first hunt ever.....
REALLY special! It was on the 3rd morning of the youth hunt.
Got to watch it for an hour gobbling and strutting around
before it came in range of our blind,,,SUPER FUN!
