The monkey is off my back.

Hey Guys,

I hope everyone is enjoying there turkey season so far ? For me my
turkey season has truly been hit and miss.I'm sure everyone has read
or heard about my miss on opening day?
Well today I got to redeem myself by guiding a client to his first
eastern turkey kill.Al Shakespere came all the way from California to
try and complete another leg of the royal slam.And it happened at
6:23 this morning.The bird weighed 24.5 lbs 11.5 inch beard and 1.5
inch spurs.Congrats Al and thank you for getting the monkey off my back.

Happy Hunting, Brad

The daily double

Hey Guys,

Well today the guys pulled off the daily double. Guide Corey White and
camera man Dusty Altman headed out this morning hoping to get some
good footage of some turkeys.Man did they have a hunt of a
lifetime.They had 5 toms and 4 jakes come into the decoy right after
sunlight. Within 30 mintues they had killed 2 birds Corey's bird
weighed 23 lbs 11/4 spurs and 10 inch beard. Dusty's bird weighed 17
lbs and 12inch beard. The key to the hunt was Fast Freddy a real
mounted decoy in full strut which made its debut today. Those big
birds didn't like the thought of some punk bird sneaking into there
turf to steal there girls and man did it work.I guess from now on Fast
Freddy will be along side all of our hunts to help get all his buddies
into gun barrell range.

Happy Hunting,Brad

How do you miss a turkey ?

Hey Guys,

Hope your opening day went well? I couldn't really ask for much more
for my opening day.The good lord blessed my with a wonderfull sunrise
and the sound of birds gobbling.But I guess I really didn't do my
part.You see as an outfitter you get asked every question you can
think of and one of the most asked questions.Is how can you miss a
turkey ? Well let me tell you its pretty easy if a big tree is down
and you try and shoot over it. Well that's what happened to me today i
had a really nice bird only thirty yards away and instead of shoot the
bird I shot the tree.I must say this is the first time I have done
that.Of course I have missed birds before if you hunt long Enough its
going to happen but you just hope its not on camera.For a tv show for
millions to see. Hey if that's the stupidist thing I do on camera
that's not so bad.
The picture you see of the 10 pointer I found dead is alot more
painfull than missing a bird. We found it this morning more than
likely it was pouched. Its to bad in a few years he would have been a
really monster.

Happy Hunting, Brad

Scouting for Missouri Turkeys

Hey Guys,

The great thing about scouting during the spring turkey season is you
never know what you might run into.While out scouting we came across
the biggest turtle I have ever seen. For some reason he didn't want to
stay on his side of the road. I hope everybody has a great start to
there turkey season and I look forward to hear about your hunts.

Happy Hunting, Brad
