Another thing about the next gobbler just showing up and taking over breeding. A gobbler doesn’t chase down and rape them. He stands there and struts all day waiting for those 2 seconds she Squats for him. Decoys became legal around 2005 and most people that turkey hunt a lot will tell you the numbers started declining not long after that. The state knows this also by banning the use of them the first 10 days of the season.
