We saw plenty of toms. My 14 year old got his first turkey in about 5 minutes into hunt. 21.5lbs and 9.25" beard. The 12yo wouldn't pull trigger on two toms at 10yds :wall:!! Gotta work on the gun shyness!image_814.jpg

NWTF sponsored a youth hunt in Columbus County. 21 kids participated, 12 turkeys harvested. I thought that was pretty good.

I didn't hunt but my buddy said it was extremely windy here and the birds were hemmed up and quiet.
