Yesterday evening I hunted with my son out of another groundblind, where I had a group of turkeys patterned heading to roost. They came by like clockwork, just out of range. I just couldnt lure the big gobbler in with my single hen decoy. Today I moved a little closer, and hunted out of a treestand with my bow. This time I added a jake decoy to my setup. When the group came through, it looked like they were going to pass just out of range again, until the dominant gobbler saw that jake. He strutted right in, and I was able to shoot him at close range right next to the jake decoy. Picture perfect hunt! Except I did miss a coyote about an hour earlier that was obviously attracted to my hen calls. Oh Well. Been a great turkey season for me. Good luck to all.
