Before dawn I'd set up a flock of Feather Flex turkey decoys just off the corner of an old fence line between a field and the woods. Then I'd propped myself up in front of an elm tree and waited. About a half hour before sunrise I tree yelped softly on my Haydel's Split Reed Hen in Heat mouth diaphragm. A tom turkey thundered a gobble in response. The birds were roosted in a group of white oaks on the about 75 yards behind me, right where I'd left them. Last night I'd driven to the field and parked the Suburban on the county road a quarter mile from the trees just before sundown. Although I hadn't seen the birds, or heard them fly up, I did get them to "shock gobble" in response to the call of a Barred Owl. Knowing where the birds were roosted and where they flew down from watching them for the last two weeks I planned a hunt for the next morning. Now that I knew they were still in the oak trees I let loose with a flying cackle; and used a Lohman's Wing Thing to make the sounds of a bird flying down and waited. Shortly before sunrise I heard the birds fly down., then I saw them land in the field about 50 yards away. I gave them a few minutes to settle down, then I blew a series of soft yelps. Ten minutes later one of the toms saw the hen decoys and the strutting jake decoy and came in to investigate. If I hadn't wanted my son Dallas to get some good pictures the tom probably wouldn't have lived another five minutes.
