We are at about 5hrs in the blind so far today. Got setup at about 6 this morning in a patch of woods full of birds. After listening to birds gobble for 45 min on the roost and both my boy and I getting excited. We got to watch them fly down and head the other way. We stuck it out for another 45 min before he started to get cold. After that we went for a drive covering some of the best turkey ground in my area and only seeing one hen I knew it was going to be a rough day. We went back to the house for a quick nap and headed back out. We went to the same batch of trees just setup about 200 yards for where we did this morning. 30 minutes in we had 4 birds feeding out in front of us in a draw. Knowing they were not responding to calls we didn't even bother. About an hour later a hen and jake cleared the ridge. I handed my boy his gun and watched him settle in and take the safety off. Only to watch him moments later flip the safety back on and say I'll wait for a bigger one. I have a feeling the next bird that walks by is going to get waxed. He is starting to regret his decision but I think it will pay off by the end of the night.
Jadyen did a great job sticking it out with the wind and definitely makes for a big smile
