    Congrats on an old warrior! I've never seen one that beat up. He must have been a grumpy old thing.

    Thanks Zach for pointing out the obvious with my scoring issue, don't know how I missed that.
    With that said, I think this score seems closer to what I was expecting. I am going to hold off posting this to the scorecard in hopes I get a chance at a larger one, but most likely, this will be my entry. We can take 4 per season here, I'm happy with two, a third will be a bonus.

    Not sure if it will be the same for you guys, but I've been having better luck without decoys. They seem to hang up out of range with a decoy out.

    Opening day here tomorrow, not going to make it out with the work schedule I’ve got going on right now. I have some help flying back in to town so hopefully I’ll be able to get at least one morning this week, then definitely this weekend. Good news is, the farm that I killed my opening day bird on last year just became available to me again, tonight! I had asked for permission again about a month ago, my buddy said he thought his brother wanted to hunt this year, I said no problem just let me know. Well tonight out of the blue, he sent me a text and said his brother never gave him a straight answer and said to have at it! Pretty pumped, this farm has held decent birds for the last few years!

    Roosted 6 birds in two different locations tonight.. we'll see if it pans out in the morning. Trying to get one down before the Wisconsin trip, leaving Thursday at noon and planning on hunting till Sunday afternoon.

    Well I missed a giant bird yesterday morning. Gave it a hair cut. Disappointed in myself. Idk when I’ll get back out maybe tomorrow.
