PIC OF THE WEEK:
This week’s "Pic of the Week" is Lee Bates with a heartfelt story of his spring turkey hunt. This was to be a very special hunt with Lee and his close friend Eric Favaloro. Eric had been battling two different types of cancer for the past 3-4 years and was not well enough to go. When Lee headed out on the day’s hunt, he brought an extra seat with him so he could feel the presence of Eric with him. The morning started off slowly, so Lee made a loop around and sure enough spotted some birds working a field edge. He quickly got set up and began calling. Within minutes he saw a red head coming over the hill heading right at him! When the bird closed the distance to about 35 yards, with Lee's heart going into overdrive, he took the shot. Tears welled up in Lee’s eyes; it wasn't a huge tom, but this hunt was for his dear friend Eric. Lee pulled a feather from the turkey and brought it to Eric later that day and said, “We got one bud!” Unfortunately Eric passed away on May 4th just two days after the hunt. This was a hunt that Lee set out to do for his buddy and felt blessed that it all came together. Thanks Lee for sharing your story of true friendship with us, Lee.
