Default RE: Public land..... Slobs

There are always two sides to every story.We always think we are right and the other guy is wrong.Where I hunt at is 150 miles from where I live.I grew up in the areaand no it well,butmany years I do not get there to scout before season.This happened 10 or more years ago.The evening before season opened,I drove in a old logging trail where that had always been birds in the past.There is a turnaround spot where I parked and walked down the trail a couple hundred yards and owl hooted.A tom answered a couple hundred yards further in.I planned to return in the morning, set up100 yards away on call in a turkey.I returned to camp feeling good about my chances in the morning.The next morning there was no vehicle parked on the main road by the end of the trail.I drovein the trail to where I had parked the evening before.There were decoys set up inthe turnaround.I turned around and leftand went somewhere else and killed a turkey.I am sure the guy told his buddies about the dumbass that drove through his decoys.I don't think I am a slob hunter.I told my buddies about the dumbass that was set up on the road.In hindsight,he may have scouted the area and knew that the birds would come there to strut.In fact,A couple of years ago I killed a nice tom by setting up on that same trail closer to the main road.I made sure to park at the end so no one drove past me!!
