Had gobblers all around this final weekend. Like close and gobbling. Witnessed hens pull him away every time. Was on one bird all day on Saturday and could get him close, but dang hens showed up every time. Even in the afternoon! WTH. They supposed to be settin on their nest then. Got in super tight this morning, he answered and was coming to me - as close as I could get and not spook him off the limb and still had two hens get between us. Both came right past me, too late and he was too late to wave them off. Oh well, I could have tagged out, but got my son in law his third bird ever so I call it a great season. Good luck to those still chasing. Looking at extending our season next year with a trip but too much happening this year.
