RE: is anything different now?
I think it depends on where you are hunting. High pressure public and private lands obviously gets tougher. More hens on nests means gobblers will be hounding the few hens that havent nested yet. My buddies down in NC said they saw 5 longbeards following 1 hen last Sat and couldnt pull them away for nothing but they were gobbling their heads off for most of the morning. I think usingdecoys now is going to be key.
