Opening Day Double

Written by Just Hunt Club | Mar 27, 2026 6:01:03 PM

The opening day of spring turkey season in the Northeast is something we look forward to every year. On this hunt, we headed into the hardwoods at daylight, hoping to get on a few birds we had located the evening before. It didn’t take long before gobbles started echoing through the timber, and the plan came together.

 

What followed was one of those rare mornings where everything seems to line up just right. Two gobblers, two setups, and an opening day double in the hardwoods.

Spring turkey hunting often comes down to knowing your terrain and patterning birds and that's what the guys from Just Hunt Club did here in this turkey hunting video.

The Mossberg 20 gauge was the tool for the job, and it delivered when the moment came. There’s nothing quite like chasing spring gobblers in the Northeast.
