Multiple gobbling birds today, but hens beat me to each of them.

Well I somehow managed to miss one at 8 steps this morning. No clue as to why I didn't aim down toward the body more but it went right over his head. I'd put a new red dot on and was good at 20 and 40 but it definitely went high. They gobbled good even after the monsoon right at daylight. It sure sucks to get soaking wet, find a hot bird anyway and then watch him run off.

I thought I had bird #2 this morning but it just didn’t work out. He didn’t start gobbling until 8:00 and gobbled good until after 10:00. He kept walking past my blind one way and then back the other going almost out of hearing each time but wouldn’t come out. I decided to leave the blind and go to where he had been to see if I could cut him off if he came back. It almost worked but he hung up about 50 yards out and it was just to thick to try a shot. He was gobbling at just about every sound that I made. I had one of those tree umbrellas that I was using for a blind but I’m gonna have to find something better than that. Bowhunting these birds is tough. How can something with a brain the size of a marble be so damn hard to kill.

Man yeah! Congrats fellas! I finally crossed paths with one this evening in Jackson county. ![[Linked Image]](http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s300/linzlyons08/0E1EA711-6985-412E-B83C-C123D614FAF8_zps8mwoaa7r.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s300/linzlyons08/432F1B34-61D3-4671-895A-383DA3E33BB0_zpsnvhxml4v.jpg)

Then we hunt VERY close if you hunt in Hell’s Creek. I’ll be at Hell’s Creek in the morning before court. Go get em. I called one in this morning for a friend just down the road and my stupid self sabotaged the kill. I spooked the bird right before he was about to die. The wind and terrain had my sense of where he was all jacked up I guess and I made a move at a very bad time when I thought the bird was farther than he actually was. As has been learned over and over again in the turkey woods, when in doubt, stay your butt there. I'll be on a different property in the morning in Lamar County but still not too far. . Congrats linzlyons!

Congratulations on the kills guys. I had one come by me and then go back by me gobbling his head off. He never got close enough that I could see him. He’s gonna mess up one day and give me a shot.

Well It's been a tough week for gobbling on the ground. We've heard a ton of birds in the trees but only a gobble or two apiece and maybe once on the ground. This lease is usually pretty good the first few weeks but they've been really henned up since the get go there. Maybe next week will get better.

I just came close. Gotta go to work. Bird gobbled one time on the roost and pitched out coming to me. Two hens pitched out in between us and you know the rest.
