So I got my first up close gobbler in my face today! :crazy: Not much action early in the morning, but after the front moved through 2 big gobblers started looking for love. 2 of my buddies move across the field to find �em. Me and my other buddy stayed where we were. We could hear the gobbles getting closer. Then my phone goes off, �2 long beards comming your way, they circled behind us and we couldn�t get a shot�. So the guy I�m with starts calling, and we�re looking...nothing. We can hear �em, but can�t see �em. Then I spot �em off to the left in the woods. 
They were strutting and spitting like crazy. We are looking at a double on my first shot opportunity ever. His goes behind a tree, mine is between 2 trees standing pretty. I hear �smoke �em�, and I shoot. He stumbles......and gets up and flies away!!! 
I�m just sick...big bird, first bird, and he�s outta there. I step it off and measure my steps when I get home 40yds. Shot with a 20ga 3�mag nitro. Shots in both trees. I have never been so disappointed missing an animal ever, I�m sick over it. :sick:
I am hooked, but I�m bringing a bigger gun next time!!!!
