I know you were nearly certain of your target, but you really should not be shooting at a target you can not fully see or see behind - this is hunter-safety 101. What if some hunter happened to be crouched down on the other side of the soybeans? A friend of mine was nearly killed by another turkey hunter. They both were calling and the other guy, in the late hours, thought sure my friend was a turkey moving in the brush. My friend got blasted, nearly died, and nearly lost an eye. Had the other fellow left the scene and not gotten help, my friend would have probably died.
