The rain didn’t stop Carlie Campbell from hitting the Webster Parish woods with her dad and grandfather (three generations of turkey hunters) in the early morning hours of opening weekend of turkey season on April 4, 2026. They struck a hard gobbling tom as the rain started to come down. He came in hot and Carlie let her 20ga sound off. The longbeard sported a 10-inch beard and 1-inch spurs. The Louisiana Tech University junior has been chasing these gobblers with her dad since she was old enough to walk.
