Dad got his first bird

Well I just got an email from my dad, he was setup around a pond where he had seen a tom a couple days ago. He told me that they did not talk at all, but there were a couple jakes in his decoys, then the toms (3 of them) came through the field towards him. At 15 yards he took the biggest one, not a huge bird 16.5 lbs, but his first.

Now we both have taken a turkey, I wish I would have been there though, he was there when I got my first.

Congrats to all those that have had a chance to hit the woods so far.

Ha ha, it is funny to say that I am proud of him but I am.

He took me hunting, got me into the sport, helped me get my first turkey, deer, rabbit, groundhog... and taught me what it means to be a sportsman.

Here is a pic, not the greatest quality but it shows how pumped he is.
