Well, that was short. Haha.
Had a Tom start coming from behind me. He kept gobbling away and inching closer and closer. Came right into the Hen, not the Jake, which was weird. Finally, at full strut he turned and I drew back. Don't know exactly what went wrong, I'm guessing just nerves, but I hit low and back. He jumped off, but then turned around and came right back. I picked up the shotgun, as I wasn't taking any chances, and have him a dirt nap.
