Hey guys, Yesterday late morning got out to woods about ten o'clock looking for a lonely tom. Walked ridge and was almost to my spot where I was going to set up and he hammered off below me about 125 yards. I set up and made three soft yelps and he double gobbled. I was pumped, next thing I knew he was walking up trail right to me where I thought he would. He would walk ten yards and gobble, pause walk another ten and gobble. He got to within 40 yards and I figured when he walked by this big tree I would take him. I was actually smiling because it was working out perfectly. Next thing I know a coyote comes running in from my right and bird took off flying. Needless to say I said a few choice words I can't repeat. I had my 20 gauge so it was a little out of range. Still after them hard though. Scoot
