we hada lil cool snap this morn'n an bout 5am we walked to our favorite spots.
assembled decoys and placed them efficiently
j2 and i were bout 100yrds apart along an active area
i could see his decoys, but i did'nt know exactly where he was.....right after
i got settled...without any shock-calls, gobblin started at a good distance north of me
& j2 was south of me. i began box call'n and could'nt get him to respond..... so grab'd tha glass pot and carbon striker......IT'S ON !!!!!!!!!
i walked him down what sounded like tha fence row bout 300yrds out parallel to tha west of both us. j2 picked him up on this aluminator pot. and tha gobbler came in for tha tease.
suddenly, if it waz'nt perfectly between us, tha monster appeared
i could see it perfect
it came out strut'n and float'n lika alien
twirlin round and round try'n to figure which hens to get..... so then he stalled
try'n to get tha decoy hens to "come to him"....but NO!!!
so he gave in and started head'n my way....
so inverted my box call to gobble so he would go south to J2. and like a plan... it worked
i watched it all take place !!!! to me, thats my favorite part....
look in tha 2nd pitcher, right behind him... see that ant bed ? jus right of that was were he
was bout 3 foot inside was his spot.
to his left, you see tha road ?..... thats where that alien monster wasa float'n !!!!!
and snuck up on j2 while he was purrr'n a mouth call
that gobbler floated right up to the decoy hens but then it ran off the path right into J2 !!
BLAM !!!!!!!!!!!!
the rest is in color.............
what a proud man he is....dam near more than i am of him
father and son team work !!!!! don't getno better'nat.......no!!!!
these are justa few pitchers, i have many... start'n last evening scout'n for roost up until
the exit.
it will make a great scrap book for maw-maw to make both us for christmas.....she does cool things like that sumtimes
our day is made in fine style
