2010 is off to a great start! Monday morning (March 8th) I was hunting with Osceola Outdoors and I was fortunate to take a hammer with 1.5" spurs, 11" beard! He gobbled good on the roost and when he landed but he would not respond to a call. After working him quietly and carefully for an hour and a half, we gave him 45 minutes of silence and he got frustrated and stepped out at 75 yards. He saw our Dave Smith decoys and did the slow bad boy walk in. Before I let him take advantage of our Dave Smith laying hen, I hit him with some Hevi Shot coming out of my Knight muzzleloader. 15 years after my first turkey, I finally broke the 1.5" spur mark! He is going to the taxidermist.

I'm not having much luck uploading any pics, but if I can figure it out I will.
