My father and I started chasin' turkeys about 25 years ago to extend out time in the woods together after deer season. Took us a long time learning how to do it; still learnin'.

I haven't turkey hunted for the past 4 or 5 years since his health got to where it prevented him from going any more; I just couldn't get in the mood each season.

I decided to start back and carried a camera with me to see if I could get lucky enough to get one hunt on camera to share with my family and a few friends. I got more than I could have hoped for, and it all started happening so fast (funny, how GOD works things out for us sometimes).

Spent about 30 hours leaning how to edit and piece vids & pics of my season and came out with this 10 min vid. I posted at real low res so it would upload fast (took about 3 hours)...

Enjoy!! I did.....

 
Cool video, thanks for sharing. If you will, explain the "rubber bands" on the pump that can be seen at the 7:42 mark. I have never seen that before, but am guessing it is for noise suppression. What do you say?

yes, the bands are for noise problems. I got that 835 almost twenty years ago an the first time I raised it up on a gobbler I bumped the stock and it rattled; the brid survived and I almost didn't.

Been wrapping bands around the grip ever since. Over the past few years I have gone up to two bands because the old gun is loosening up with age. I should probably take it in for repair, but rubber bands are about as cheap as I am. ;)
 
Congrats on a great season Meat and cool video! Glad to see you back on the club this year!
