Morning all:



I had a flock of about 20 Jakes and hens pin me down while the two bigger birds duked it out over a hen beyond my sight.  The flock moved off and after about 20 minutes of thinking it was time to find those mature birds, one walked in front of me like a ghost.  It was over just like that.

 As daylight broke, there were 8 birds gobbling.  Pretty sure it was 5 gobblers and 3 jakes.  It was a quick hunt, but kind of odd.  I had three gobblers close enough that I could hear drumming, but they would not commit to coming in.  They kept flying back and forth across the bottom, from hill to hill.  They gobbled good for about an hour, then it went silent. Suddenly, one gobbled at a hen cutting. I look up and 9 hens are flying at me!  They land about 30 yards out and are unsure about the decoys.  I though the jig was up, but they calmed down, and began feeding.

In the back of the opening, I see a gobbler emerge from the creek, about 90 yards away.  He completely skirts me to join some of the hens.  Then, two more gobblers and a jake come out and come toward me, once they come around a fallen tree, they bum rush my jake decoy and send him flying!  I let them beat on him a bit, and finally this one gets clear from his buddies. 

Winchester 3 1/2 XX 6's at 20 yards did the trick!



It was a cool bonus to see a second beard!  This is my first multi bearded bird!
