Had to take a few days off because sometimes life gets in the way. Back at it Monday morning. Going back to a spot that probably has the best listening spot in the township but was dead silent last week.

I would put money on there being an xarcher based post with photos of the dearly departed on here in the very near future. I know that this bird's days are numbered and he's living on borrowed time. Give him the pill, X!

Good vibes going out to Xarcher and our other stubborn hunters  :funnyturkey: Z

Another rough week.  Only one day without rain but made it out 4 days.  The one clear, cool and calm day heard one gobble off the reservation.  And that is the good news. 

Wednesday afternoon I was watching a cut corn field across a dirt road from where I can hunt.  Watched one step into the 50 acre field from the far tree line about 200 yards away or so.  Proceeded to feed my way.  Directly towards me.  I'm sitting in the woods about 30 yards from the road and just when he gets ready to cross the road, a van drives by and off he goes never to be seen again.  This was the only vehicle that passed by in the 3 hours I was sitting there, and it came by within a few minutes of that bird at the end of my barrel. 

Wednesday morning it rained hard until 9:00 so I hunted a spot near a roosting site until 12:00 then had to leave to take care of some business.  When I passed by that spot on my way the afternoon debacle, there were fresh gobbler tracks within 10 steps of where I was sitting earlier. 

Back at again in the morning.

Close ain't even close to a fair description for what you have been experiencing, my brother. I believe that soon, and very soon, he is going to see the King, right after you engage the trigger mechanism of that 20 gauge.

Just do it.

Cheers  ;D
