I shot this gobbler on 4/15/04. I got some awesome video footage.

I shot him at around 7....yrds! It was awesome!

A friend and I were in the blind and he had already killed his at 7am. We had been calling and had this one gobbling and he shut up. He was coming, but he never showed. Finally at 8am, my buddy said "there he is". He was coming to the decoy in full strut at 20 yrds. I couldn't see him because he was coming straight in between 2 of my shooting windows. He came to 7 yrds and finally moved into a window and THWACK. All over.
