Just got home, Dad's first Turkey hunt. We heard nothing this morning but Whipoorwills, Crows, Woodpeckers and songbirds...........and 2 quick shots 300yrds away. It was a beautifull morning though, calm and quiet after the Whipoorwills quit and before the other birds. We left when the wind started blowing alot and will return later this afternoon. Dad had a new, inflatable hen decoy that looks amazingly real and makes my old one look like crap so I set mine 15' from us and my Jake near the pretty girl. I was puzzled by the shooting, we would have heard any calls from the hill we were on. I assume someone set decoys on a long straight dirt path that runs where the shot's came from, and a Tom saw it and walked in w/o gobbling. This path is on power co. land that is posted no hunting too.
