Ok, here's my dilemma. For opening weekend this Saturday, I am going back to where me and Leah messed with these 8 longbeards. Basically there are 3 sets of birds, 2 strutters with a bunch of hens, 4 "tough guy" two year olds, and then another pair of long beards. This past weekend the 4 two year olds were running around gang banging all the strutters. The other 4 strutters either got their tales whooped or booked out when the fighting started.
So, my questions is, do you go with my Jake decoy w/ hens or do you go with b-mobile strutter?
Saturday I had the Jake and they didn't pay attention to it at all. However, my fear is that the full strutter my scare off some of the birds (since they have been whooped), but then again it may attract those 4 "tough guy" birds. Yes, I am over thinking the issue. What would you do and why?

Stick with the jake. I would not want the stutter to run off some birds.

Turkeys have one thing on their minds, women turkeys, and will want to run off the competition, I don't think it would make any difference.

I say put the strutter out. Let them whip him before the TSS strikes.

I think I should go on Jake decoy w/ hens because I think I am much more advantage on that situation. I think I can do it, if that was on my part.
