One thing fer sure Antlergetter...you' re one persistant fella!! I' m not sure wether this will help your situation but I' ll give ya my 2 cents worth. I' ll start my calling when the bush " wakes up" with soft clucks and a soft 3 note tree yelp. I' ll do this a couple of times. After a bit when the suns light is slightly better ( I wanna see my bead sight ) I" ll let loose with some aggressive cutts and a variety of yelps( meaning ...loud , soft , different numbers of yelp notes ) Listen for a hen that might be answering back...they make the best decoys and watch out ' cause they' ll come right in to ya! When this happens I' ll shut up and be extemley still and let the hen do the work for me. You' re obviously getting close at 50yds , thats when soft purrs sometimes work with an soft cluck every now and then. Being absolutley still is very important at this time. It' s amazing what they can see when their coming in. I don' t worry about getting my gun up until the tom is in range. I' ve been busted lifting my gun slowly up , even when I thought Tom was to far to see me...Never say never and never say always when it comes to turkey huntin' ....I wish ya my best.
