For The Rio Grande
Doug Crabtree
Adds A Rio
 Doug
drove to Throckmortan, Texas and met Shane Nixon of World Slam Outfitters.
Shane had roosted birds the night before and the two went to the nearest
field from the roost and set Doug's Double Bull blind 40 yards from a fence.
When the turkeys fly down into the field Doug called but the birds didn't
come.
That afternoon they set
up in the same field, further uphill. Doug called every half hour
with clucks & yelps.
At 6:00 a gobbler answered.
In turn, Doug answered. As an hour passed there were a couple more exchanges.
Then 2 longbeards appeared and they walked up behind the blind.
The back shooting windows
were closed and when the Toms were 20 yards Doug dropped a window.
That made the gobblers uneasy
and they started walking away. Doug drew and shot, his arrow hit it in
the back and it dropped right there.
Doug Crabtree and his
Texas Rio Grande, bird #2 of his 4x4 Grand Slammer quest.
