heard 3 shotgun blasts at 540am off in the distance so i reckon somebody was mad at em & limb launched one πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ then, heard one more blast around 6am - a neighbor i know well must’ve scored ... was easing on up close to 645 & about that time i hear wings flap & off the roost a jake lands in front of me about 30 yards & starts putting softly - at that time, 2 of his buddies still on the limb clucked back to him ... he slowly eases off & it gets quiet again ... shortly after 7am, the other 2 decide to come on down & walk about 10 feet from me ... observed them until they too walked off into the woods across the line ... nothing beats super close encounters like that, except of course killing a gobbler ... i thanked the good Lord for blessing me with His creation this morning & came on home after all that


A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.
