I chased two birds all over yesterday and called them up. I didn't have a shot. They moved off onto my neighbors land. I went back this morning and they gobbled on the roost 10-12 times each. They flew down and went the other way so I was off to the chase again. They gobbled at least 75-100 times at every sound in the woods. They started heading back to where I was originally set up, so I went back there and tried to get in front of them. After about five minutes I heard them drumming real close. I got ready and heard footsteps behind me. I turned my head and they both were walking out in the foodplot at about 10 yards. They were clucking and looking around and I had to switch my gun around and shoot him left handed. He weighed 18.5lbs and had a 10" beard and 7/8" spurs. I checked my camera Saturday and I had a bunch of pictures of the same two birds from Friday morning.
