Good job bird man. I had another opportunity, also Friday eveing... could not see a beard , and  he was with a jake... once out of range ... I was able to see the beard ... stayed with him the rest of evening...... couldn't get him back. Next morning .... Somebody came in there with me and walked under him right at daylight.... He did gobble but he sailed way off and stayed quiet. Dang the luck but I'm glad some of Yal are having good luck

Sweet - finally heard my first gobbler tonight - should be a good GA opener even if I only hear a faint gobble!

No luck in Florida. Found a bird the first morning and then couldn't manage to find him the rest of the trip. Don't know if he moved areas or just wasn't gobbling. Now we wait for the Kentucky opener.

No luck in GA - had 5-6 gobbling on the limb and was sitting right in the middle of them - chose to sight tight and they they all went separate ways with hens.  Lesson learned to go make a play on one of them vice thinking one would fly my way.

Nothing seen or heard on second day and had to cut the hunt short to come home early - being semi retired hasn't made hunting any easier😳

Had another chance at the bow bird . And called him from a long long way off . He came on a string ... but .... He came through my window of choice at 38 yards and sat in the same spot behind a brush pile for over 2 hours continuously gobbling at the decoy.... Cannot move on him as it's flat bottomland ,and I could see him the whole time .... A fox bumped him at 9 o'clock... yes he stayed there from 7-9 in the same 5 yard area. I took his exit as an opportunity to put the decoy away... being the decoy is what kept him there with no shot for so long ... and I moved for a better setup... walked about 1/4 mile , probably have him a 1/2 hour , and found me a spot with a dead fall tree . Plenty of drawing cover . I called and he answered , not too far. But I had a long shallow body of water between me and him... decider I better setup on the other side , might hang him up . I step across , called once more , he gobbled . I gained some ground on him for a better setup . It wasn't long I hear walking ... and look over my shoulder and the son of gun is back across the water , by the fallen tree where I made the first call.... He had walked around the water ...had I just stayed there ... he was still very close . 40ish yards ... this is the third time the bird has been in shotgun range of me ... yet here i am with a bow.
