Well in short I didn't get anything But I had an Awesome Morn. !!!!! Just before day light and about 400 yards from my set-up I had 4 gobblers on the roost that were on fire!!!!! Here at the farm it is mostly open fields and thats all that I had between me and them, so I decided to stay put and try my luck at either calling them over to my dekes or try to see where they headed and try and cut'um off I waited until they hit the ground and I lit'um up with cuts and cackles, they went nuts but they were with hens and would not leave them so I decided about 7:00 am to try and make a move on them and cut them off, but un-beknown to me I had a Gobbler close'n the distance and only 100 yards away. When I stood up to move he caught me and the jig was up I glassed the field really good before I moved but had forgot about the shallow depression in front of me and when I stood he was in full view and I assume so was I I hunted a different area of the farm from 8:00am until noon today and I called in a bird but it was a lone hen. Tomorrow morn. I am hunt'n another farm instead of going down to the shore, so I am hopeful to have some action over there !! I would hunt the area where I saw the 4 Gobblers go to but my hunt'n buddy has not ever taken a bird and he has off Friday morn. But like I told him, if he don't show by 5:00am sharp, I will be sit'n in that spot O-well this is only the first day so I am still pumped because "I Know" where I will be friday morn. if my hunt'n buddy don't show up |

Well I am glad to hear these Birds all fired up ! But I can't seem to draw their attention. This morn. I went to a different spot and had 3 Birds Gobble'n from 3 different directions. They were all 2 - 300 yards from my location so I just sat there and let the morning un-fold. These guys Gobbled from the crack of day until about 10:30 It was like being in the Bermuda Triangle The bird to my left and the one to my right both decided at the same time to make a move toward what I thought was my calling but instead they headed for the bird that was out in front of me. All I could do was sit back and listen to this wonderful music because I had no cover between me and them. Dang Field Turkeys Again I had a Great Day !! I would like to see my buddy Randy kill his first Bird tomorrow but if he dosen't show up, I know where I'll be |
