I've called birds in and shot them at less than 10 paces which has been very exciting and also have had some stalks that have been quite satisfying. I hunt private land except for the Black Hills and I do love to call them in as they are awesome to watch all fanned out and spit drummin' but when the opportunity arises I'll use the terrain to get around to where I think they are headed. Sometimes I've called them in after that and other times I've headed them off and made the shot. One stalk in particular had me runnin' my tail off as I first spotted a group of gobblers with hens on a distant field top. I used a low spot in the middle of an open field to get around to where I thought they were going. Belly crawled to a corner of the field where they should have been headed. Well, they turned and when down to an old road. So I crawled back out while watching them, ran down a trail, along a steep hillside that lead around to the road, and snuck as far as I could up to meet them. I saw the first hen come thru the woods and got the gun up. That Rem Super Mag was getting heavy by the time the 2nd gobbler stepped out on the bank above the road. Had to lower the gun barrel while he turned away in full strut to rest my arms for a second. Then brought it back up as he was turning back around. Knocked him down as he walked into the road. That stalk was really fun. So it's all good to me either way...
