Title: DBD 6:45am
Post by: unclerick on April 06, 2011, 09:15:15 PM
The Lord truely blessed me this mourning, went into the woods and sat down, waiting for something to gobble so I could move in on them, 2 gobblers sounded off 100yrds from me along a creek so I put out a deke right quick and sat still for a few minutes, then made some soft clucks and a fly down. These birds followed 5 hens into a field across from where I sat up about 175 yards away, them birds never came out of a strut and them hens acted like they didn't want anything to do with them, I made soft purrs and yelps and finaily the hens left the field to my left and I thought the toms would to but they turned and came straight into my set up, they finaily got about 12 steps away when they split up enough to get a shot off, and that is all she wrote, heres some pics hope you like.

Wow, the Tennessee birds are dropping like flies. IDK if we have dumb birds or really good hunters but in either case, I think we will surpass last years 37,000 birds killed in 2010.

Congrats on a well executed bird/hunt.
