Well in my mind I had a very sucessful hunt this morning. I called in a great bird to within 35 yards, but never got to fire a shot. He came in just behind me and stayed in the tree brush just enough to not have a clear shot. This Tom has at least a 10 inch beard. I have been hunting him since the 23rd and scoping him out for well over 6 weeks. Maybe I will get a shot at him this evening.
Keep at it Brian.... you will get em' Good luck. Not seeing anything in Fairview. Going to my friends in grayling and try it there, at least he is seeing birds.
Good luck. At least you didnt spook him.
Good luck. Stay after him.
And remember if you don't get him, he'll be there for me......
Good luck! Perseverance pays off!
