    @Donovan 2 yrs running where I’ve called in a 🦃 and turned him into 🍗 while wearing the latest hat you’ve designed for the first time bro. Let’s make it a hat trick next year! 👊🥃. Pun intended.

  • Appalachian's avatar

    👍👍👍👍 Got some fans and beards that I couldn't tell you when where or how I got them but those hunts that are burned into your brain forever are so special! Good job guys! I'm currently daydreaming about the three longbeards I found in a clear-cut that I've got a date with in the morn!

  • Mike's avatar

    @Appalachian yessir, they’re all special but the ones that jump to the top and burn in are priceless. Good luck tomorrow!👊

  • Brian's avatar

    Congratulations, you the man👊

  • Mike's avatar

    @Brian thank you sir! This one tied for my favorite along with his and my wife’s first birds.

  • Ferg's avatar

    Now that’s how to get out of a hunt, the wild machine haha. Congrats dude

  • Scotty's avatar

    How cool is that, congratulations you guys.

  • Ferg's avatar

    Or the wild turkey bike, even Batman would be Jesus of thst bike 😂. Jokes aside man, damn fine work gentlemen. What a day 😎

  • Mike's avatar

    @Ferg thanks man, first time I’ve ever used anything other than just boots and they were a big in the Sandhills.

  • Mike's avatar

    @Scotty can’t tell ya man, off the charts👊

  • Eli's avatar

    Heck yea man!! Great story and an awesome hunt!!

  • David's avatar

    Congratulations to you, Mike and your son. That's some adventure

  • John's avatar

    Heck yeah! Sounds like an awesome hunt and one that you will never forget. Keep making those special memories Mike

  • Mike's avatar

    @Eli Thanks man👊. He said he hasn’t shook that hard since his first deer🤣

  • Mike's avatar

    @David thanks David! Watching him instead of the bird was a neat experience on its own

  • Mike's avatar

    @John you know it bud!

  • Eli's avatar

    @Mike yep they'll get to ya!! Really cool to experience moments like that with another person!!

  • Mike's avatar

    @Eli No doubt, but especially when it’s your kid!

  • Ferg's avatar

    @Mike bikes are fantastic man, especially the odd road ones. The electric mountain bikes look great too man. Getting 40 miles to a charge These days. That’s a lot of quiet distance to get in and out of secluded spaces man.

  • Dwayne's avatar

    Great recount of the event. Father and son memories in the great outdoors are hard to beat.

  • Dave's avatar

    @Brad thanks sir. Your whole office got a shout out to the sky right after thanking the Big Man himself👊

  • Brad's avatar

    @Mike 🥃 cheers to that. Have a good bourbon today for the ponies.

  • Mike's avatar

    @Brad 🥃

  • Adam D's avatar

    That's awesome man! Yeah I may not be great at executing shots but I learned they very rarely come in how you expect them to haha. Nice work fellas.

  • Mike's avatar

    @Adam thought for sure he only had one route that made sense. Apparently he didn’t have logistical training 🤣

  • Adam D's avatar

    @Mike man I'm sure you've had this too, I've seen them get hung up on crap you'd never imagine they'd hang up on and barrel through stuff you'd never imagine a snake would go through, let alone a turkey 😁

  • Chuck's avatar

    Great hunt, story, and most of all memories!!!

  • Mike's avatar

    @Adam that’s exactly what we had between the 2 we took!

  • Mike's avatar

    @Chuck thanks Chuck! Definitely full of everything good.
