Thanks Hunter1314 for the advice. I have to admit I was intimidated by all this new land I have to hunt but it turns out birds in sussex fall for the same tricks those new kent birds did back when I was a younger man!

outstanding!! nice bird!! with 1" spurs he's probably a 2 year old maybe 3- nice paint brush!! I killed a nice bird opening day - got pic in "Hunting,Hunting" I've been on 'em 4 of the last 5 days- starting to get that look- seen 3 more longbirds - all too far- aint heard a gobble yet! they'r following hens like 16 year old boys @ the beach after chicks! stay on your hens now - where they'r @ he wont be far behind- they'll start sitting before long & then he'll GOBBLE ! congrats!! love them turkeys! let me know how rest of season goes- I got 4 more tags look'n to fill
