Thanks guys! That tom was 20.5 lbs. I have had an on again off again season so far with calling them. I am currently having the best results using the cutter calling with a few short yelps. But even then it is skechy, today with all the wind and rain I decided to drive the pipeline which runs from the Canadian border here to Old Town. It's along stretch and I saw close to twenty birds with 90% of them being hens. I did over shoot a large tom about like the one I shot yesterday. I shot at it while it was running down hill and over shot it about a foot or so. I most likely will not be out again until Saturday unless I feel like hunting after a night shift. I might go out and try some calling just the same.

Congrats on the jake even those are hard to see right now.

Good Luck to those who is still hunting them.
