Congrats to everyone who put tags on birds through the first Leg! I was finally able to get back out Saturday morning and had one going right off the bat. Never was able to get on him first thing but stuck close to him and finally put my eyes on him at 7 o'clock. He was huge to say the least, but had to hens with him and was not able to pull him off them. Sunday I went back to the same location and had gobbling on the roost again. Only difference was, I had to cover a lot more ground to get close. Once I set up roughly 100 yards from the gobbling I gave a few yelps and he answered instantly. Short while later I heard him fly down and he continued to gobble like crazy and before I knew it he was 25 yards all alone and love sick. Nice LB right in my lap and for some reason I decided to let him walk!??[emoji848] Not sure why but I just did....... back at this weekend and can't wait!
I will definitely be packing bow and gun tomarrow! Set a blind up where they like to strut late morning to try a take one with the bow if I can't get on one earlier with the gun. Can't wait!
