Me and my hunting buddy each got one this morning. At first light we had 4 gobbling behind us in the bush. As the fog cleared 2 hens came by our decoys then a jake came out into the field. In a short time later 2 toms came out and chased the jake away. The 2 toms came right into the decoys. Me and my buddy each picked one and got them both. What a week of hunting. The one had a 10.5 inch beard and 1.5 inch spurrs 23lbs. The other was 21.8 lbs. 9.5inch beard and 7/8 inch spurrs. We were home by 7 o'clock. Going out in the morning with the phoenix and my son. Will post pics latter.
