We got into a good spot while it was still dark. When it got light enough see fairly good I hit the owl hooter and two gobblers sounded off about 300 yrds away. We moved to about 150 yrds from their roost and I hit the owl hooter again and they sounded off a second time. We put a hen decoy out and got into a chest deep ditch that provide great cover and got set. I started with some soft tree calls and they gobbled back., then they flew off the roost and headed the opposite direction. I started cutting and yelping aggressively and a third gobbler sounded off about 100 yrds away in a different tree. He picthed out and flew to about 50 yrds from our setup and I called him into gun range. My grandson wanted to make a good shot and was on the trigger and off the trigger between struts. Finally, he broke strut and stretched his neck out looking at the decoy and got a load of HW #7 in the face.

Very cool...
I can hardly wait to experience that first bird with my own children...
I have to ask, who was more excited, you are him?
Did I do that?
Fly fishermen are born honest, but they get over it.
