Title: Breakfast Turkey
Post by: Limbstrutter on April 23, 2014, 10:45:34 AM
Went out this morning after yesterday's disaster.  Yesterday I went out and set up in a field they visit daily and as light unfolded I could see they had moved to the lower field and when they roost down there they always shoot to the upper fields. So I just set tight and listened to Em leave my life. Lol.
Well on the way out yesterday I bumped them and they flew back up to the field I was just hoping they were roosted in . Fast forward this morning.  Got in early this morning just took my feeder hen and looker hen because when the group would see my Jake they'd head the other way  . So at light I could see Em all roosted right where I want Em so just as they started to pitch from the tree I gave them a quick fly down cackle and a few yelps and lay ed back and watched Em for about 10 mins. And about that time olĂ© boss hen starts cutting me off so I just started mimicking her for every note and she wanted no part of it and started to leave ,  by then I'm like noooo not again and they dissappear for a second and out pops the strutter  and starts heading my way.   Gobble. Game on and from 150 yards I watched him strut and spit and drum with the whole flock in toe and at 25 yards Game Over . Love it but that's my second bird in three days my season is over. Till next year. God I love turkey hunting.
