Michaux birds are easy............Killin'time said:Found a bird yesterday afternoon in the Michaux SF... Came back in at dark this morning and set up right where he was strutting with a hen. text book 0600 he hammers as he comes off the roost. starts gobbling at everything that makes a sound. Few yelps, cuts me off. i shut up. couple minutes later a hen appears 100 yes away, and i give a few yelps, he hammers back CLOSE. maybe a minute later he's less than 15 yards as he appears from around some bushes. stop him with a yelp and game over.

Use a mountain bike next time. Just cruise along Piney Mtn that way. Could put a strike in the spokes and friction call on the fork and call along the way, like the ole baseball card trick.JMMBONES said:Not today they weren't......I walked 4.5 miles back Piney Mnt Road and did not here a single gobble.....same thing happened this past Monday.
