Well I tried to see your location of where you are hunting!

I am thinking you did nothing wrong.......Depends how far north you are as mating was not happening in Mcih. where I was.

He may have seen real hens and ptiched down to them.....then like a love stuck typical male just goolwed them sturtting!

The birds gobbled very little but where strutting....shock gobble was nadda...in MIch.
