I had a hen and jake bust me yesterday morning while the bigger bird was just under the hill. Those two no counts ruined that hunt. They got up on my side of the hill where I had been yelping early, when they didn't see anything, the spooked and moved off. They took my bigger "Tom" with them. The hen practically landed in my lap. I saw her glide out of the tree and land. I did enjoy the hunt, I had that hen and jake close, plus two other hens yelping and cackling. After they left, I tried to get in front of them, but I was never able to make connection.
