Default Somethings wrong

This being my first year of turkey hunting I was expecting to make some mistakes but DANG!!!. I have seen 104 turkey in 4 days and can't seal the deal. I guess I'll get the hang of it one day but I sure wasn't expecting this much failure. I'm hunting private land and there's not a lot of pressure, some, but not a lot. The woods come alive "every" morning with the sound of gobbler's trying to outdo one another. I'm not calling a lot but enough, I think. I had gobblers around me in 4 different directions Saturday morning and had 2 fly down in the field with me. I had a hen decoy out and gave them some soft purrs at first but they would have notheing to do with it. I gave a couple of soft yelps and they left the field like I had shot at him[:@]. I was in my blind with only one window open and I just know that he didn't see me. Any ides? Maybe I'm just paying my dues and will get lucky before long. I hunted Thursday with a guy that is a very experienced turkey hunter and he was very impressed with the number of turkeys on the property but he said that my inability to get around was hurting my success. I bought some of that leafy material to cover my wheelchair but I just can't get to where I want to with it. I will own a Bad Boy Buggy next year. I'll keep trying. I'm bound to get luck before to long.

God Bless
