but no cigar,
Finally heard my first gobble of the season sat. morning,he gobbled 4 times in the tree,I moved in on him.
When he flew down,the party started,I thought there was a hunter behind every tree.I had never heard so much yelping and clucking from hens in my life.After he was on the ground,he gobbled 5 more time,but he wasn't studying me,the hens started carrying him away from me,I challenged the boss hen ,but she would have no part of it.
The "party" crossed the power line around 60-70 yds above me,1 gobbler and 15 hens,I followed and looped around ahead of them several times,but each time I called the hens turned the other way.
I went back to the power line that afternoon to see if the gobbler might come back into the area.
Nothing from 3:00 until 6:00 when 11 hens fed out on to the power line,about 20 minutes later several more hens showed up,but no boy friend.
I watched them until they flew up at dark.
