Not sure if the miss part makes any difference. There is a field I hunt that has pressure from other hunters as well. In previous years I have killed toms in company of other birds in the same spot on two succesive days. I also know of others that killed birds in the same field the day after I quit hunting it. So I guess it just depends on the area and situation. I killed a gobbler there this year in my same spot and the next mourning the other 2 toms he was with were 10 yds away in the same field with the hens. On the other side I have a field that I hunt and on the first day there I got busted trying to turn to shoot when 2 toms came out on the wrong side. I have not seen a bird (other than a single hen that I believe is nesting in the area)in that field since that day. So go figure.
