Had a good morning. Hiked the same loop as opening day last year and almost in the same area one started gobbling. Someone else was hunting the area so I listened for calling and didn't hear anything. I yelped and the bird started coming in. He didn't wait long before he was at 23 yards. I let him have two ounces of Federal premium.
He was 18 1/2 pounds dressed, 8 1/2 inch beard and 3/4 inch spurs.
