This tom walked out into the field at 60ish yards with a hen that drew him away from my ground blind, decoys and ignored my hen yelps. :smiley_chinrub: Nuts! I sat there, watching and waiting...for 2 1/2 hours. At one point the pair were around 170 yards away.



Then the hen starts walking along the river, back towards me...with her boyfriend in tow. :smiley_bril:
She walked past my ground blind at 8 yards, while the tom looked a little apprehensive of the decoys, this "love sick" tom followed her into my Mossberg 500 Turkey Special sights. I squeezed the trigger at 22 yards and he went down like a plate target. :smiley_dead:


Sometimes a plan comes together, falls apart and love heals all wounds...or in this case creates one!
