This weekend was Youth Season in Missouri.
My youngest "baby" Boo will be 15 in May and wont be able to Youth Hunt next year.
Yesterday we had a great morning but not even a gobble on a neighbors farm.
We set the blind up on our place last night.
This morning my 5'10 14 year old baby killed this bird in almost the same spot he killed his first bird with a cut down and modified 410 6 years ago while sitting on my knee.
The most special thing about this morning,we had 2 birds with over 10 inch beards and I am sure both were over 20 lbs, that hung up at 30 yards,HE was not confident in the shot and HE decided to let them walk.
10 minutes later this guy walked between us and the decoys and he capped him at 15 yards.
I LOVE this kid...
Need to add this bird weighed 18 lbs and had an 8 inch beard and 1 inch spurs,not a grandpa but definitely an adult.
