I've never killed a gobbler right at flydown, but I've had a turkey make a fool out of me too many times when I thought I had a great setup off the roost to think I have an unfair advantage.
I have, but it's the exception, not the rule. As Will Primos says, "Roosted ain't roasted!!" :funnyturkey:

My question to all of you is shooting a tree hopper OK? I've got no issue at all killing it.

I have only seen it happen twice. Once was a Tom that I was working finally broke after I did a 180 degree circle on him. Caught a glimpse of him in a small clearing headed my way at about 75 yards. He flew up into a tree and sat there for easy a half hour surveying the scene and then coasted off. I would have killed him though. Second was a bird that tree hopped his way in and then dropped to the ground about 50 yards out. He proceeded to trot into range. Pedro took care of him pretty quickly.

I'll shoot the tree out from under one who is responding and coming to my calling.  But would never think about shooting one where he spent the night.
If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!
