Well we have less than a Week for are Spring Turkey Season, And I have Had a Horrible Time with  2 Birds? Last  Thursday I had these Toms, at different Times, Come to with in 65 yards and Hang up, The First Tom comes in right after daylight, and The 2nd one About 10am, I know there different Birds Because the 1st Bird Limps real Bad. I have been using Decoys and I think they hanging up because of them, at first I was using a Jake and Hen, and then went to a Full strut Tom and Hen, and both Times they would respond to my calling and then just stare at them and Skirt off, I tried to move on  Both of them and they leave the Property I have permission to hunt on, and on to another property, and always in different areas so its hard to pattern them? I am Hunting hard this week, and may just go with out the decoys and be more mobile. All the times I see both Birds they are Solo, And I was wondering if they are Gay or have had there Butts Kicked they just don't want any more? I know they are both Killable Birds its just being in the right place. And Iam running out of time. Turkey Hunting is tough and Changles you all the time, Last year I killed my Tom the first 15 minutes of the Season, I love the Hunt its just Very Frustrating, I could of Killed several Jake's, But I would rather kill a Mature bird. What would you do different. Iam running out of time.

Ditch the decoys for sure, make them hunt you.
