He gobbled once and I went that way. I did a few soft yelps and clucks nada. He flew to with 40 yards to a limb going over the creek. I sat there watching him strutting on the limb but wouldn’t budge. Finally around 8 he pitched down and i shot him. His rump was full of #6 copper coated lead shot. Jerry had took a shot as he ran away



Wonder he didn't break a leg on him


What was really funnyish was Jerry had an old man with him that was one of the best or so rumor said. The old man had yelped in a box and nothing was happening so he was digging in his fanny pack for a special call. Always jerry saw 4 longbeards coming up the road towards them. Old man can’t hear so Jerry kept jabbing him. The old man looked up and the birds took off running back down the road. The old man fired both barrels and Jerry joined in. He said out of range but the old man was shooting buck shot. Lol. Never cut a feather. I asked why Jerry shot and he said he want gonna be left out.

I was surprised the old man didn’t killem all.
