0:15 They meet up with the Goddards and plan the morning hunt.
1:45 Once in the field, birds start gobbling and they quickly move into what they think is a solid setup.

2:50 Culpepper gets word that Michael Waddell called in a longbeard for another hunter, and we take a quick look at the success.

5:45 The tom comes charging in hard and fast, and gobbles the entire way in.
