March 7th, 2011Turkey Thumpers – Webisode 5: The Almost Bow Gobbler
March 3rd, 2011Last season I went hunting with a good buddy of mine because he wanted me to video him shooting his first turkey with a bow. As some of you might know, shooting a turkey with a bow is a very challenging endeavor. It was foggy and raining that morning and we both situated in a tent blind. Watch the this video to see what happened to us.
Reality Hunt Club – Webisode 2: Management Planning
February 28th, 2011In this episode I am going to talk about our Quality Management Plan for the 2011 – 2012 season. This is what I like to call our paper work episode. Now we are always working on the management plan year round. What I mean by this is we are currently measuring the success and failures of our current plan so we know what to do in our next plan. Also, in this episode, I describe our hunting club and discuss the successes and failures of the 2010 – 2011 season.
Turkey Thumpers – Webisode 4: Bobby’s First Gobbler
February 24th, 2011For the past 2 years, I have been giving a free turkey hunt away at our Sunday school Christmas party. At this party last year, 2 guys fought hard to get the hunt. I felt bad for the guy who lost, so I decided to take both of them. Bobby’s hunt came up first and we headed to my FL club. Bobby made a great shot and bagged his first turkey. You can tell he was a happy hunter in the video.

Excited About Turkey Season
February 7th, 2011Turkey season is 6 weeks away and I am really excited about all the places and people I will be hunting with. This year I plan to hunt Osceolas in Florida, Easterns in Georgia and Mississippi, and Rio Grandes in Texas. I plan on filming all the hunts and I will be featuring them on our Turkey Thumpers series. Here are a few turkey photos we shot with our trail cameras in various locations the past few weeks.
Turkey Thumpers – Webisode 1: Tad’s Big Osceola Gobbler
February 3rd, 2011At that time, my 10 year old son, Tad, shot his first mature gobbler opening morning here in Florida. He shot a Jake the previous season but he really wanted a “big ole Tom”. Boy did he kill one. This gobbler had 1 inch spurs and a double beard measuring a total of 16 inches (main 10 inches, second 6 inches). Those are really good measurements for an Osceola.
