Charles Fowler from Ohio with a New Mexico Merriam's Gobbler. Outfitter Pat Feldt called in this Tom to 7 yards before Charles released an arrow. No blinds were used, just normal calling against a pine tree!
PJ Lampros with a big New Mexico Tom Merriams turkey. Without hearing a response from any gobbler, we decided to setup against a couple pines and just "cold call."

This beautiful bird has 1-2/16" spurs and a 10" beard, 22.0lbs.
