Turkeys in PA

My friend Graham and I hit paydirt this morning on a turkey hunt in the northwestern tip of Beaver County. We went yesterday morning and heard absolutely no turkeys gobbling. As I woke up early this morning, I worried that the hunt would not go well.

We arrive about 30 minutes before daybreak and heard a hen clucking near a pasture. We set up in that area hoping there was a gobbler nearby. There was not, so we began scouting around a little bit.

We then heard two toms gobbling on the far end of the pasture, so we hustled down the pasture in their direction. We located the nearest bird and I began calling to him. About thirty minutes later, this turkey showed up looking for us and Graham killed him.

What a great hunt! We're back in the woods tomorrow morning to see if we can get another one!
