RE: Thought it was a chicken
congrats......i went out turkey hunting till 9 or so......every time i hunted this land all fall there were always 4-6 longbeards right in the same spot.....roosted there.....fly down there.....and hang out there at all times of the day it seemd.....figured id crawl in there 30 mins before the first sign of light and have them fly down to my lap and pick one out.....snunk in PERFECT.......no birds flew off or anything......but i guess thats because they werent there.....i think the storms the night before made them roost somewhere else....i checked all the fields and everything before leaving but couldnt find them......and i walked in through all the woods to get to them...they roost right behind a house and a road......but i come in from my buddys farm on the other side....nice to be out......but no luck for me.......its early......congrats.....nice bird........
