This is a Tom I shot this spring Gobbler season in Pennsylvania. It was without a doubt the most difficult hunting I've ever done. I hunted hard every day trying to get lucky with this old boy and finally it happened. I really got obsessed with turkey hunting just a year ago but this is the first mature turkey I've ever gotten. I'm proud of having the grand opportunity to have had so much fun going after him. I've been rained on several times, been bitten to the bone by bugs I didn't even know existed, half frozen, frustration, exhaustion, and sheer mental fatigue. This turkey was in my head 24/7 for 24 days until I got my chance. I'm very proud of him and wanted to share this picture with anyone who knows how it is to be obsessed with turkey hunting.

Look for Water Ripples
If you are hunting creatures that use the water, for example moose, or puddle ducks... look for ripples. Yes, ripples! If you actually see the animal, it can also see you, and it may be too late. But if you come around a bend, and look for and see the ripples - generated by what is ahead and still out of sight, you have "spotted" your animal before it can spot you.
