Default This Will Season Three For Me

This will be my Third Turkey season.

Turkeys 2 Me 0

The first time I knew nothing about what I was doing.
I got a set of Primos mouth calls.
Spent 8 or so hours learning to use them.
Two days later I was in the woods.
I had turkeys coming in.
But I imatated the wrong sound.
The Putt Putt sound, well that was all for the hunt.LoL

Then the second year.
I went and scouted for at least two months.
I sat in the woods well after dark.
I found where they were roosting.
And where they would be in the early mornings.

I went & set up heard two gobble.
They started getting farther away.
I did some soft yelps.
And one started coming back to me.
He sounded like 100 to 150 yards away.
He was coming closer.
Then he got quiet.
I slowed down on the soft yelps.
Then all of a sudden BOOM.
Then a couple seconds BOOM BOOM.

Well between me and the turkey was another hunter.
About 30 minutes later he walks right by me with,
A nice Tom hung over his sholder.
I asked him if he knew I was there and he said no.
I asked him how long he had been hunting here.
He said it was only his second time here.
I know he had just as much right to be there as me.
I spent over two months scouting.
And he just walks in and Talk about dumb luck.
At least he didn't shoot me.

Oh well maybe this spring will be better.

Good Luck To Every One
