Congrats!
I went out w-sat great hunts but no turkey yet. First day just saw hens and a tom came in after I was far off, second day, Tom answered my calls but had a hen, third day same thing. The forth day I set up to close to a tom, he flew off the roost over my head and headed for the strut area and so did I. Soon I had 30 turkeys in front of me gobbling, strutting, fighting and mating, trying to close the distance at one point I had to crawl on all fours with very little cover then I heard a gobble far off soon that gobbler was running from 300 yards directly at me, I had not called in 15 min and was in full camo, had moved from my calling position deciding ambush was a better choice.
and yet this gobbler was running right at me stopping twice to strut, I took my shot at 30 yards and missed! I am going to re pattern my shotgun before I go out again.

So why would this tom run strait to me? No turkeys within 50 yards of me.
