Tee Ball




Avery started tee ball on Monday. We'll keep you updated as the season progresses.

First Turkey

I decided to take up Turkey hunting this year. Though my family was skeptical that my turkey calls sounded like a turkey and that my turkey decoy looked like a turkey, it looks like I was on the right track. Monday was the first day of the season, and at 9:00 a.m. I bagged a decent gobbler. It weighed in at 19 lbs, 3 oz, had an 8.75-inch beard and 0.5/0.25-inch spurs. It was called in from about 200 yards using a diaphragm call.

The only hunting sport that I have ever been serious about is deer hunting, and I have to say that turkey hunting could easily become my new favorite sport.
