Spring Gobbler Action ……….

We were back out Saturday morning (26th) ….. bumped two Turkeys off the roost before 5:30 am. Worked the area … no responce …. moved up to the back of the farm …… worked the box call  …. no luck. Moved into a pine ridge …. worked both the box call and a new slate call, custom made by James Taylor (www.jltaylorcustomcalls.com) Bam!!! a gobbler came back to us from where we just left from the back of the farm. We worked that Tom for 2 hours. He came to with’n 40 yards from us with hens. We did not have any decoys with us …. but I feel if I did, he would have been more commited to crossing a small field. He worked us, and we worked him ….. in the end, both Mr. Tom and I got more educated. It’s not about the harvest as much as it is in the education gained from being part of the outdoor experience.
