"Calling In" a turkey

[bbcoach]

Well....I'm glad most of you can get turkeys to 40 yards. I personally cannot guess the yardage to within 30 yards either way, so have no idea how far they are when I shoot. That's why I've spent so much money on my shotgun and shells. I got a .410 semiautomatic that was made in Kazakhstan,I think. Sure it jams about every other shot but man it's cool looking. It's made of  .99% plastic, the good toxic kind, I think the firing pin and maybe one of the recoil pad screws is metal everything else is plastic. I'm shooting 3/8 of an ounce of TSS # 12s, the 3/8 ounce really tamed the .410 recoil. With my 3-12 x 42 tasco scope it weighs about 14 pounds but with full .410 loads my shoulder takes a beating.
        As far as calling in a Gobbler I don't think it matters how you get them to the feeder, sometimes the sound of the feeder going off seems to bring them out, sometimes they just seem to wander up into the decoy spread?? Either way I'm shooting no matter the range I mean I spent all this money on my shotgun and $12 dollar a round shells, not to mention the time and energy to set up 23 decoys and a small tent, and walked at least 50-75 yards from the truck, I'm not taking any chances.
     I've said it before and I'll say it again "What difference does it make how you kill them,as long as you have a picture for Facebook that's all that matters" I shot a hen last year about two weeks after the season closed, I halfway fanned her tail out as best I could for the pics, and no one I know knew it wasn't a Gobbler! I did have to edit some of the video footage for my Utube page  but still got 2 likes for my video.
     

Well said LaLongbeard!  TAKE NO PRISONERS!!  LOL!

I have called turkeys up in 10 foot before and killed them using modified choke ,also have had them hang up out of range I hunt pubic land ,a lot pressured gobblers.terrain has a lot to do with getting them close. I try to get close as possible before calling no decoys
