I was in Michigan this week until Wed. I started off using the decoys but quickly learned that for some reason they were spooking the birds or just making them wary for some reason. On wed morning I went in with no decoy. As was said there is not much green up yet and the woods are very open. I was sitting in my lounger by a tree and had 2 hens walk right past me so close I could have grabbed them by the neck. After they left I started to call and had 3 toms come in gobbling at first then go quiet looking for the hen. I shot one at 35 yards and he had no idea I was there.
