With all this talk of Bf Grant I decided to give it a try this weekend. Hunted with a friend of mine, we heard one bird Saturday morning. He gobbled about 5 times but didn't come in.
Sunday went by myself. Heard two birds gobble. One gobbled about 10 times. gobbled a couple times on the ground. last time he was about 80 yds out. I moved and put my gun towards him and waited. 15 minutes later and nothing. thought he slipped away. I was about to get up and I heard a little rustle in the leaves directly behind me and then it went quite. I couldn't stand it so eased my head around to look and you guessed it, he 20yds behind looking right at me. he putted once and walked away. I circled and reset up but no luck.
Called one in on my second time there, not bad.
