RE: These pics make me wanna hunt!
Yea, I'm pretty sure he does. I have a couple more pics of him and it is in all of them. I've never taken a bird with more than one beard, so I hope to get him!
Today, I had the afternoon off and went to the land. I sat down at about 3:15, and waited. There's a few houses down the road from my place and sometimes I can hear their dog barking, today I could hear him. Anyway, I called very little, about one purr-purr-purr-cluck every 20-25 minutes. At 4:28, I saw the white head of a gobbler through the woods. I did a light purr, and hoped he would come, he was at about 80 yards, and on a trail I've seen them and deer use before. Well that's when the dog that was barking seemed to be getting closer, I was praying for him to get hit by a car, but he didn't. I heard a crashing through the woods coming towards me & my tom, it was a deer, of course running from the dog, the deer ran right beteen my decoys, and right to the trail the Tom was coming in on! Anyway the dog wasn't too far behind. I don't know what happened to the Tom, but he wasn't there anymore! I've never wanted to shoot a dog more!!!![:@]
Maybe tomorrow!
