RE: Official Team ThunderStrut (10) thread.
Think out of the box. Do what the other hunters aren't doing. The BEST way to kill a gobbla is to be where he wants to go. If you are already there, shoot....you won't even need to call. Wait him out and ambush him.
For instance.....the guy I talked to today says they have been using a typical 3 decoy spread, 2 hens and a jake, sometimes a gobbler too. So I left all my deeks at home, save 1 loley hen. The only calling I will do tomorrow is the soft stuff. Let out an occasional purr and some clucks. Don't sound like the other guys, and don't do what they do. The birds have been educated by that.
Find a good area the birds like to visit, sit and wait. Pressured gobblas will most often come in and NEVER make a peep. You won't even know they are there. Just sit tight and keep the faith brother!
