Has anyone else gotten out yet?
Friday 4/27 my father got a jake. It was a case of you go left I go right. I'm gonna call and he'll run right to you, away from me.
4/28 I was working a bird for 2 hours. He gobbled 200+ times in the 2 hours I was working him. He flew down and was strutting back and forth across the road about 80 yards out. After about 45 minutes of that he turned and started walking away. I backed out the road and circled around him. He came past me about 60 yds this time and still no clear shots. I backed out again and hit another of the access roads to get in front of that bird. As I'm moving along that road pretty quickly another bird goes off right in front of me only about 80 yds out. I back up about 10 paces to a nearby tree and get ready. Called this new bird once. When he came he brought another gobbler. They gobbled 3 times in under 5 minutes and one of them hit the ground at 35yds. He's not a huge bird but good enough.
