Are you interested in killing a giant Tom? Or several giant Tom's? If you’re a single, or if you can get a good size group or corporate group together to hunt the following, we would love to get you lined up with some Thanksgiving Feasts! We have access to Rio, Merriam, and Eastern Turkey's in Kansas, 2 birds, over feeders or not, yes you read it correctly.... lol, typically we reserve these for Bow hunters; but whatever suits your fancy! We have access to Merriam, & Easterns in Nebraska, 3 birds! We also have access to Easterns in Missouri, 2 birds, and Michigan, 1 bird. The only state I currently take non party, single hunters in is Michigan, which is excellent but can be a pain because you have to pre apply for the license by Feb. 1st; but all is not lost, 99.9% of the time you can still purchase a left over license all the way through the season and don't actually have to pre register. Michigan has giant Tom's and if it's a big, fat, long thick bearded strutter with super sized hooks on it, that's where you want to go as a single, unless you’re a single planning on harvesting several birds or across State lines. In this video, the Birds would both make NWTF Book and it's common to do so. One tom had 1 5/8" spurs and a beard thick enough to paint my barn, as you can see, the other had a skinny beard; but still 10 1/2"s and great 1 1/4" spurs and again this is common place for us. I shot a tom with 21" s of beard, 2 total and 2" spurs with my bow 2 years ago. This bird would have probably been in the top spot all time for NWTF in the state and would have scored very high over all nationwide. I also had a client last year kill a tom with 23"s of beard, 3 total and 1 1/4" spurs with a gun; so what I'm saying, they're on our ground and lots of them. In the video, my son called his tom in with his mouth and killed it at 15 yards with a 20 ga. Last year we killed a 13 1/2" beard in Missouri, 1 beard, and nearly 1 and 3/4" spurs, we like chasing the big ones. So if you like the drumming and spitting, or the gobbling and spinning; call me, we'll go get Ma some Turkey Day Din Din. 100% OPPORTUNITY-Just let us know when you want to go. Late March through May 31st each spring! See ya in the woods and fields, God Bless and Good Hunting!
