Default RE: beginers mistake

LOL. First year I hunted turkey I was getting skunked but good. Last day of the last season I went into an area I knew birds roosted and got set up, confident I' d get a bird.

First light I made a couple of tree yelps and waited. At sunrise I let out some yelps and waited. About that time I heard yelps some 150 yards away and all of a sudden a tom, which I didn' t realize was there, flew down towards the other yelps. Five minutes later I hear a BOOM! Game over. LOL. Boy did I feel stupid![8D]

Couple years ago I was working a roosted bird that flew down to an unknown (then) strut zone. After an hour of working him I figured he wasn' t coming so I backed out and snuck around to his side of the creek. That' s when I heard him gobbling where_I_had_just_been!

Nowadays, I don' t BUDGE unless I KNOW for sure.
