Thanks for the welcome BlackLab & seattlesetters!
Now for the meat & potatoes. The birds are still in the woods, I hope that the 4 birds from yesterday die from throat cancer! Got them to 50yds but they wouldn' t come out of the woods into the setup. I slung eveything at them, soft , slow, hard, fast & even had hens get in a calling contest with me(matched her note for note & a lil extra)! Even tried going silent for a bit to move around then draw them back in but they wouldn' t come out. I don' t know how much hotter I can get birds, it was baseball, they were belting single, double, & triple gobbles.

PS trapper T, haven' t used the power crystal but I know that they love the wood witch.
