We kinda got lucky and didn't realize how close the hens were to us. They pitched down into the field in front of us and began calling, meanwhile he flew down in the woods behind us. We were literally in the middle of a flock! I just let the hens call the tom in, it worked out great! He smoked him when the bird got into the field and presented a shot. What a fun morning it was!
Congrats to your dad Jepcho!
