I didnt score on my 1st season Pope county tag. Heard a few birds, but were henned up almost the entire time. Every time I'd get one comin my way I would get cut of by a hen
Was pretty frustrating!

Got one in Montgomery Co. yesterday about 8:30. I started a shouting match with a couple of hens several hundred yards away. Every time I called they raised all kind of hell, yelping and cutting, and I gave it back at them as loud and obnoxious as I could. After about 15 minutes, 2 hens came into view about 50 yards out, headed for my 2 hen decoys. A minute or so later mister big boy came strutten into range. First tag used two hours into the first season.

Opening morning in Montgomery County was overcast with light rain but the toms were gobbling. At 7:00 I had a tom come walking out of the timber to check out my decoys which were in a grassy field. He never made it to the decoys - I shot him when he was about 20 yards from me.
Next hunt will be in southern Indiana and then fifth season here again.
