I used to live on 24 acres, It was the only time I could successfully hunt. Thought hunting was easy till I had to try public lands.

This fella made the mistake of coming in my yard during turkey season. It was an extremely hard hunt.I was sitting on my couch eating a bagel and drinking coffee. I looked to my left and thought I saw one of my chickens in the back yard. Nope. It was two gobblers.
I made the hard trip to the gun safe got my shotgun and stalked to the garage where I waited about 15 seconds for my quarry to arrive. When they stepped into the clear at 20 yards from the garage the lead bird took the shot.

Nothing easy about that hunt,what are the odds of getting a tom in your yard,it’s much easier to find them in the woods ��
