First Bird Down !!!

We were in SW Ohio and was going to hunt all week but we were forced to come home early ,,,
But I managed to get one down under tough conditions, Birds were all with hens and not saying a word.
I spotted two birds strutting in a cut corn field with a number of hens ,so I did a round about to get on their blind side ,set my DSD Dekes out and started purring and clucking. No answer but I saw a hen making her way to me on the property next door and I didn't have permission to hunt it. She walked by my dekes and me in a wide open field acting weird ,after she past me she turned and looked back at the decoys (a Jake and hen) and her neck got real red ,she dropped into half strut made a small circle and went into a full strut. Never saying a word, I purred some easy and she walked on up the fence out of sight ,,,,, THEN I see a Tom on the same path when he sees the dekes he starts strutting Spitting and my clucking and purring was as excited as He and I both were and  under the fence he came three steps and a strut at a time covering 40yards to a face full of TSSD 9s from a Benelli M2 at 40 Yards.

NOT a WORD all the way !!!

May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?
If attacked by a mob of clowns, go for the juggler.
