Lerona, WV (4/29/2012) - The West
Virginia spring turkey season was already a few
days old when I was offered the incredible opportunity
to join Charger Wiley at Dual Shot Outdoors for
what I hoped to be a successful hunt for a nice
gobbler. This hunt was all coming together quickly
as I had just picked up a camo edition 2012 Kawasaki
Brute Force 750 4x4 utility ATV and my orders were
clear, GO HUNTING!
With the Brute Force loaded, I made my way to
southern West Virginia’s Mercer County and
the weather forecast was not shining on me like
my good fortune was. I was a bit bummed in all
honesty, here I had the chance to hunt with someone
who knew these birds and the area intimately and
the weather was going to beat us into the ground
as well as having a nice Kawasaki Brute Force
750 ATV to ride and it was going to be a full
on monsoon!

My good fortune did continue however, weather
not withstanding, as I pulled into my bunk house
for the next few days and not even the rain could
place doom and gloom on my continuing streak of
incredible luck as I was to be housed in a cabin
built in the 1700’s!

Charger
Wiley - Dual Shot Outdoors & Worldwide
hunting guide took us out for West Virigina's
Spring turkey hunt |
Meeting my hunting guide, Charger Wiley, was
a pleasure as instantly I could tell he was going
to do all he could to put us on a good bird even
if the weather was going to try and drown us.
Charger has a long history behind the lens videoing
hunts worldwide for most of the big name hunters
you see on television, and now runs his own guide
service on his property.
Now the pressure was mounting, here I had a world
class guide, a new 2012 Kawasaki Brute Force 750
4x4 all decked out with a gun scabbard, winch
and a fitting camo finish, an editor reminding
me that a hunting article really works best when
you are able to harvest your target and don’t
forget that we need pictures, and most importantly,
don’t miss!

Dual
Shot Outdoors put us up in a neat cabin
that was built during the 1700's |
Charger began some brief history of the cabin and
the area, which just so happens to be close to one
of the Hatfield McCoy trailheads and soon I found
us heading off for a quick scouting of the area
we were to hunt. Daylight was fleeting but I could
tell he had these birds patterned and if the weather
held, we should at least have a chance come morning.
Did I mention the rain? It continued to pound
the region as darkness enveloped us. I was paid
a visit by Chargers brother to make sure I had
everything I needed and for well over an hour
I was overwhelmed by his knowledge of the cabin
which was built by his great grandfather and originally
stood along the New River. The cabin was moved
by the historical society and eventually found
its way back to the Wiley’s who have turned
it into a bed and breakfast as well as a cozy
and enchanting location for his hunters to stay.
