GobblerNation & Foxtrotammo ambassador ShaunMatthews has some gobblers in his area. I got to hunt with Shooter for a morning hunt after it had rained all night. No gobbles. However I did get a hen to respond and she brought 2 other hens close. 3 Tom’s stayed out at 40-45 yards and I shot a limb in some brambles. Stood up to shoot again and battery died in my red dot. Haven’t changed it ever.
So while I was crying over my stupidity and while Tommy and I was at WaffleHouse house having a kid morning breakfast I texted Shaun asking if he was lonely
He said bring it! Went to his house and then we rolled out to one spot. Nada. Beautiful turkey country tho. Went to another and we seen a hen dusting. As we walked closer to her I looked through a gap and seen gobblers and hens across the field. I told Shaun and we dropped and placed decoy out in front of us. He ran his mouth call and they looked but followed the hens. I hit my PeckerWrecker and they strutted some. But kept following the hens. So I pulled out the Guesswho YelpR made by LtPack. I clicked cut and yelped and I got a looker. I hit them again a lil louder and he came closer. When he was at 100 I told Shaun he was gonna come and die. Then to the left of the looker and strutter came around the dirt pile and then it was a race to which one was gonna die first. Shaun was peeking around the decoy and kept telling me to let them come. All of a sudden no gobblers and I told Shaun they disappeared. Then about the time I thought I might need to call to see where they were at they both gobbles at 10 yards. Apparently there’s a dip in the field that we didn’t see laying down. I shot at 8 yards. Smoked him! Thank you Shaun for a crazy fun memory.
