I blew it yesterday, I am not sure how it happened. I was heading into my blind and saw a big tom with 2 hens. I was able to get close enough for a shot so I took it. I knocked the bird over and it flapped on the ground for a minute and then took to the air. It flew down into the woods and I could not find it anywhere.. I circled around about a mile back but no luck. Then later on I called 2 toms and 2 hens into my decoys. While I was doing this someone else was directly across from me calling at them. So I let them walk away, as I didn't dare take a shot with someone being a cross from me in the line of fire. Then this morning while heading into my blind I was busted by a tom and a hen. I will try it again in the morning. It is supposed to rain do you think they will be back in the morning? Also saw another tom and 2 jakes while scouting out another area. I couldn't get close enough for the tom however.
