Default beginers mistake

[&:] I scouted an area that looked pretty good. called my buddy and said we leave in the morning. We were told turkeys can' t smell very good so we sat and drank our coffee on the side of the road. We could hear gobblers off to the side(no permision to hunt there) so we figured we could call them across the road to us. As we unpacked the shotguns a gobbler FLEW over our heads. [] Game ON!! we snuck off to our spot@100 behind where he might of landed. I walked to my tree and he went to his, the hen decoy and us made a triangle pointing toward the landing zone. 2 hours I sat there calling sometimes, waiting always, before the HEN nesting in front of me jumped up and ran off[]. She stopped to say goodbye twice offering some real good shots but she had no beard. here we are told to shot hens with beards.
This was the first of two times we found a good hunting spot that ended up hiding a nest.
