I was out yesterday morning and had a couple of birds gobbling.After about a half hour I was startled to see a nice long beard  pass by side window heading towards my decoys .He made a right and walked into my shooting window and at 12 yeards I shot.And missed.I got my arrow and it had down like feathers on it.Just a little high.I am new to turkey hunting and this was the first time I got into birds close.. What excitement! went out this morning and heard some gobbles but nothing showed.

Dan Hope you feel better.

I called in a hen twice this morning.

Couldn't buy a gobble if I wanted to.  I have tomorrow morning until 9:30, then I'm done.

Black flies weren't to bad but they would go straight into my eyes.   :mad:
