This morning, I was finally able to scout the back of the farm because the snow finally melted. At fly down 3 toms flew into the field and I could hear more in the woods. 15 minutes later, a single tom came out followed by the first 3. 10 minutes after that some hens came out with one more tom. After 30 minutes, there were 19 hens, 2 jakes and 7 toms in the field. They worked across the hay field towards the cut corn 200 yards away. The group of 3 is running the show and will not let the other 4 toms get close to the hens. In total, I watched them from 5:45 to 7:15 and they traveled 200-300 yards. My plan is to set up in the middle of the hay field on the small rise they all walked down this morning.
It is going to be a long night of thinking and dreaming, but with a little luck, they will show up tomorrow and play the game!!!!
