My quickest hunt ever. I thought I blew it when I setup cuz I was within 75 yds in wide open woods and when he pitched down he flew to the opposite ridge. I called and he answered along with two other gobblers. They worked their way up the opposite ridge gobbling at every call I made but going away. I went silent for about ten minutes and they gobbled on their own in the draw between the two spurs. I called again and they cut me off. I waited another five minutes which felt like twenty and called again and they cut me off this time 100 yds from me on top of my ridge. I got situated pointing down the two track that ran the length of the ridge , as soon as I was set I saw a gobbler running towards me down the road. When he reached about 30 yds he stopped and I sent him a load of federal heavy weight #7's and anchored him in place. I was done on opening day at 0645. I sure am glad we get two tags in Missouri and that I have some others to call for to finish out the first week.
