Thanks Oliver, I must say I agree 100%.  Even though I did fill my trukey tag this year, I missed 3 times before finally connecting....  :banghead:

Took me 6 years.  Finally ended the curse.  Hang in there.

Really! My hat is off to you guys. I am determined to keep at it until the last day. So far I have had one within 20yards, gobbling and strutting, but he would not come the last 10 yards or so to the decoys/shooting lane.

FRUSTRATING!!!

I did call one in for my son Saturday... and he shot him with a shotgun. There was no way we could move the blind when he started coming our way as I knew he would hang up at a fence (he did). 10" beard, 1 3/8" spurs and 21#. One less for me... but it was a way of getting rid of a lot of frustration.

Gonna try again tomorrow mornin'.

Congrats to all you successful gangers!
