Did you all ever have one of those years where you were on gobblers every time you went hunting but just could not get a shot for some reason? That's the kinda year I am having so far.Like today we are working a gobbler and he is coming in he's about 30 yards from hitting an old woods road that we are set up on,my son says walking down the road I thought he said the gobbler was walking down the road he says no some person, I craw over to see down the road and here comes some old fart in shorts and a white tee shirt down the road. He gets about 10 feet from the decoy and says gobble gobble and turns around and goes back the same way he came. What an ! Now we are at least 3 miles from Any main road and houses. That's my luck this year
Where were you hunting that some old guy comes up and says gobble gobble and turns around? Was he losing his mind or what? I'm sorry for your luck. Unfortunately I have the same luck, just without the old guy
Hang in there. We've all lost birds to goofy stuff. Makes all the much better when one comes in on a string!
You should have chased him down and flogged the hell out of him. He wants to play tom turkey then you play tom turkey and you are the boss tom.

Yea some really weird stuff this year for sure.Its making memories that for sure.
Sounds like a PITA freak.... check local law to see if interfering with a hunt is illegal and file a complaint.

Absolutely! Or you could be a true ningy and use your ju-dee chop to stun him! Once he's down, stamp an :welcomeOG: sticker on his forehead! But remember, Don't go Ningy on nobody if nobody don't need Ningy!
Had one of them years a few years ago, minus the moron, and ended up getting one on the last day. So hang in there, hope it happens for ya.
Mine was last year, seemed to be able to call a bird in every time I went out. Either a Tom or hen, just wasn't able to seal the deal. No people but had a coyote come in. Almost got one the last day but ran out of time.

keep your head up....it will make that bird so much better when you get it :icon_thumright:
Big Gobbler, We hunted the lake delancey uint of the forest and didn't hear a darn thing for 4 days... Did you guys hear any birds ?
Ocala is a nightmare , I was hunting there years ago , and out of nowhere comes a guy on a souped up kawasaki dirt bike with straight pipes - roars right up the trail , I hear him coming so I step right into the middle of the trail and stare him down as he roars up - I did not even budge a inch ,made him slam on the brakes - I was so pissed off! there I am holding onto a shotgun and a poker face by that time , and I did not let him pass my - he just turned the bike around and idled away
spring turkey season and and all kinds of fruit loops are out in the woods
lol thats crazy
Yeah i've been there, feel your pain.
it only takes 5 minutes to turn the feathered bus around.

We are hearing birds everyday they are not roosting in the same spot,so darn dry hard to move on them. Lake delancy is a hard place to hunt due to all the trails going through it.around the resovoir is the best area there
