shot this bird on  tuesday may 12,heard him gobbling on sunday the 10.we were having a stretch nice weather so i decided to take 4hrs vaction and go into work late.when i first heard him tuesday he was roosted alittle higher than i expected .i knew the hollow he was in and got setup.got alittle closer than i wanted to but he gobbled again so i did`nt spook him.the only movement i made was pull my slate call out of my vest and put on the ground and lay my gun across my knee.nothing things went quiet then i heard a turkey putting up in a tree straight acrosss from me.bird flew down and got out of there real quick.i`m thinking you got to be kidding me,i hung around for half hour or so and nothing.so decided to try another place and he gobbled up on a flat ridge.until i could get there without getting busted he was gobbling good on his own.he responded good to the call but would not budge strutting back and forth.he went away from me and resetting up he just would`nt come in.with time burning and having to get to work i got more aggressive with the calling and he could`nt take it and came in for a 30 yard shot.18lbs,11.0 beard,spurs 7/8 and 1/2.
