That's awesome!  Nice looking bird  :tup:

I would like to tell you an engaging, skill filled, suspenseful story. But the truth is after 10 trips out and seeing one hen, My wife and I
decided to get up at 5 am. and try to abuse ourselves once again. 2 hours into the morning we took a much needed coffee break in a most unlikely spot.Half way through our second cup, down this incredibly steep cut comes a hen, jake, and tom. they came to 30 yds.
and well I was done. No calling nothing. All we can say is dedication and the turkey addiction worked.

Hey that's still great! You persevered, got out there and got it done!

Dang, I was hoping for some insight on how they're acting!  :chuckle:

Biggest factor was just right place, right time and not sitting on the couch! That's all I need to get out there this weekend.
