I had to make a trip up to the hunt camp in SC. On Easter night a EF3 tornado went through the area causing terrible destruction and killing 5 people. I went up to make sure camp and the hunting property were OK.
Fortunately they are, so I figured while I was here, may as well hunt.
After working all weekend on the property with my hunting partner, this afternoon I went out. Called in a hen, who walked away talking back and forth with me. About 20 minutes later, I was looking ahead in the woods, when I heard what every turkey hunter dreads.
PUTT!!! Putt, putt, putt!!! I looked to my right and behind me, and there's a gobbler standing there looking at me. He came in quiet as a church mouse, and of course on the wrong side and slightly behind me. No shot option.
I've got 2 days left to hunt, and my season will be over.

Bummer on the quiet gobbler. Nothing you can do about that. Hope you get on one in the next couple days.
