  38. This weekend I am going turkey hunting. I am going with my dad, and I hope I get a big gobbler. While I am turkey hunting I am going to use my new shake ¨double gobble call.¨ My neighbors hunt right in the fields beside me, but they have both killed two turkeys which is the limit for the season. Although they are not supposed to I still think that they will hunt. Last week end while I was hunting Jake went behind our blind and my neighbor killed it. The Jake was a pretty good size but had a small beard.
