Well I hit the woods with Chef Dave and his young daughter Emma for the Michigan Spring Turkey Opener. The forecast for opening morning was calling for cold temperatures and heavy snowfall. The weather was very nasty and the birds were holding tight and not vocalizing much at all.
We did get one nice tom turkey to come in close to us but soon after he noticed the decoys, he turned and ran off the other way scared. Chef Dave’s 10 year old daughter Emma was really excited for this hunt as she was doing all the calling, she did a great job and impressed the heck out of me. We had a really cool encounter with a coyote at about 30 yards first thing in the morning, that kinda made up for not having much good action the rest of the day!
Check out the video below from opening morning and stay tuned for more hard hitting turkey hunting action coming soon! We are hunting long and hard this turkey season because “That’s What We Do!”
