What a weekend youngest grandson has had! Clinched the second game of double header Friday night with a 18-17 win. Not bad for 12 year old 7th grader playing varsity. He didn't get to hunt yesterday morning as game wasn't over until 11:00 Friday night & by time they raked the field it was after midnight.
So he got to hunt this morning! Got on birds at daylight & setup 4 different times. Finally came in at 8:00 and I had Kaden setup 15 yards in front of me. He's always sit between my legs or beside me & I was anxious to not have "control" of him. I saw the white head coming up hollow & Kaden had gun on knee ready. Shot him at 40 yards and dropped in tracks. 1 Jake & 2 longbeards were behind him a bit and ran up and jumped on him so Kaden got to see a show!
18# 8 oz
9.5" beard
1-5/16" spurs
God is good!
This makes 4 gobblers in 4 years for him. He got to hear 12- 14 birds this morning too. On way out carrying his bird, he stopped and said " I sure am glad you are cooking a big breakfast when we get back to camp", lol.
