Normally, if I'm after a bird and he won't commit, I move on to another, but I've been on one for 7 days now, had him close 3 times and hens came in and took him away. Kind of like hunting a trophy buck, hate to quit, know he's nearby. Well, after today, and again, hens took him away. It's a pride thing, want to kill him so bad, but realize, he will not come to my calling. However, has been a ball. Maybe tomorrow I'll try a different piece of property, who knows. I must admit, since our season on March 26th, I'm whipped physically, just hate to give up. I know I should move on to another bird, but I also know, sooner or later he'll mess up.
