advice in a hot tom
 
i had aturkey fired up this morning, one time when i yelped he gobbled 7 times consecutively. this is where i always mess up, once you get him like this do you back off or keep on calling

At this point, its time to play with him, Now I'm not sure what type of calling you are doing, But what you want to hear is Double/Triple Gobbling from the same bird, then its time to play the game of if you want me come and find me. Back off and let him Gobble to you, to get you to anwser him, Give him a few yelps, as your anwsering . when he gobbles again at you then give him a short series of a Cut,about half of what you would do normaly. He should then respond back again with a Gobble. If he cuts off your Calling with his responds ,,, Get that gun up and ready! work your bird back and forth from Excited to casual calling, you don't want to over call and make him feel as if your excited for him ,, this will hang him up. Work him till you can see the bird coming your way , Then almost stop calling and wait ,, with the gun up and follow him with the barrel untill in gun range, You can every once and a while very softly yelp a couple of times to a gobble or two. Then TARE is Head off with that Load of Headach the you patterned before the hunt...Good luck...BT
