Lot's of great replys here as well too!! I have to agree with GobbCaller as well, if you call to much to him while he's still in the tree, he'll stay right there until well after daylight waiting for that sassy hen to show herself!! Now if you can't get any closer to him, he'll shut right down and fly off in another direction on you. Been there, one more lesson learned the hard way. It's hard not to call back to a hard gobbling bird. Another problem is that if he's really cuttin' loose, he'll attract other hunters on you!! Tuff call, each situation is different like bucks_n_gobs stated as well!! <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
