Found a willing participant this morning

[Tom Foolery]

Great morning to be in the woods, clear as a bell, no wind, slight frost, turkeys gobbling.  I heard 5-6 different birds, one was really sounding off but he had the ladies with him.  I made a few calls and got answered with some coarse yelps back.  After about 15mins and listening to the big boy move away I was just fixing to crawl out of the woods when I saw 2 heads pop up over the hill.  Hens I thought, then I see the 4-5" beards attached to them.  I have never killed a jake before, and I thought back to last season.  No birds down, only went 5 times due to a torn ankle ligament, sorry jakes.  I let them seperate and let the biggest one have it at 32yds.  Mossberg 835 2.25oz H13 #6's, all that was holding his head on was some skin, absolutely crushed him. 


I know where the big one is roosting and I plan on being there in the morning.
