Well, id rather be lucky than good. alarm didnt go off and i woke up at 5:49. Uh, only an hour late. luckily it was rain and overcast and as walked into the woods at 6:00 ish and birds were still on the roost. this guy was with another bird and they were both gobbling but not much. as i passed by them on a field edge they flew down and one gobbled about 100 yds out. i sat down and now he was about 60 yds. i softly yelped and putted and then shut up. about 30 seconds i see him fanned up about 30yds. he dropped fan and ......... 19 lbs, 8" beard and 1" spurs. in and out in maybe 5 minutes. luke [
