I met this young man several months ago. We got to talkin about turkey huntin & he ask me would I come out to their 3000 acre farm & call in a turkey for him . I said sure so a couple weeks later we planned a hunt. It was a great day & we busted up a gang of longbeards & dug in and finally after several hours I called in a gobbler & he missed him. He was sick ! Well this morning I went out & picked him up & he said I think I know where the turkeys are. Well he was right on the money. This gobbler ( jake ) gobbled on the roost for about 30 min. then hit the ground & didn't say a word. Christan was using my Benelli M2 20 ga.& after about 15 min of leaf scratching & soft purrs & clucks I hear Christan say there he is. I said bust him ! He made a great shot. It was a great morning & a good way to break in my 20 ga. Thanks for lookin.

#1 reason for this successful hunt: Patterning, patterning, patterning of this gobbler's travel route. The previous morning he flew down after alot of gobbling only to hit the ground and gobble only a few times. He headed directly away from me. Roosted his that night and adjusted my set-up location and after him flying down and coaxing purrs, clucks and sporadic yelps from my diaghpram call he strutted into view. The rest was history at 25 yards!
