Default RE: Blind set-ups...

The last two birds taken were both semi-blind setups, in that I knew there were birds in the area, but set up before working my calls/locating a roosted tom. In the one instance, we were set up on a virtual turkey highway (we' d taken 3 birds there already that season), and, after a 4 hour wait, my wife bagged her first. In the second, after I set up (cold) before dawn, in my Doghouse, in the rain, I heard a tom gobble on the roost nearby, and eventually called him (plus two jakes and a hen) in.

I prefer to roost a tom, either the night before or in the early dawn, but sometimes blind setups work, too, if you' re lucky.
