It's tough when they're henned up. If you get lucky and intercept them where they want to go. Being silent and not calling may work only because it seems the hens thatare w/the Toms tend to lead him away from any new hens. I've got 6th season wi and hope it'll be all settled by then. Last year during 6th I had a Tom at 70yds and he still had 6 hens with him!
