Got invited to go hunt a friends lease a couple days ago. Had birds gobbling all morning from the time we got out of the truck. My buddy does not know how to call at all so I was really more along just to call on this hunt. We had a bird work us early and would never commit. Then we had 3 jakes come in to 10 yards and my buddy could not get turned on them. We moved spots and while we were walking he told me if anything else came in and he could not get on it to shoot if I wanted to.
We get to a small opening with big pines behind us and a 3-4 year cut down out front. Get set up, sit down, hit the call once to see if I can get an answer, nothing. Look over at my buddy and his eyes are glued to the hen decoy 15 yards away. 2 jakes half strutting not 5 min after we sat down. His gun is still on the ground and I see him look over at me and give the thumbs up. I had my gun half way up and a small tree covering me that allowed me to get it up. as soon as his head cleared a bush I let one fly. Bird dropped stone dead and never moved.
Had some great turkey cutlets the past couple of nights!!
