I don't really feel like i did anything wrong, but rather than dismiss the situation as "part of turkey hunting", i thought i would check with you to see if i could have done something different. Without making this post too long, I won't include too many details, but basically, I was set up about 5-600 yds from where the gobbler was roosted (too far but i didn't know where he was). Anyway, he flew down after gobbling in the tree and on the ground, getting to my location about 30 min later. He stayed about 125 yds away from my decoys, travelling perpendicular, gobbling and strutting, but would not come in. He move farther away before turning toward me, standing at the far end of the field, again, strutting and gobbling. I was careful not to call more than a tiny bit, also tried going silent, tried purring, etc, all over the course of about an hour. He still would not commit, he stood there waiting from the hen to come to him. Finally, he seemed to realize after watching my decoys, that something wasn't right and he turned, walked away and never gobbled again. I am sure he did not see me move b/c i was completely still, though in his direct line of sight. I was behind a few bushes, moderately shielded but completely still.

any idea why he would not come in? why he might have turned and walked away after staring at my jake and hen for 15 minutes straight?

I don't know what happened. It was still a great hunt, but i am looking for input. thx
