We get setup on one of our smaller places to hunt but we know there is several gobblers in the area. I make 2 series of yelps 15 minutes in between. About 5 minutes after the second series we hear a gobble off in the holler around 100 yards away. I soft yelp at him again and he cuts me off. Within 5 minutes I see him top the ridge at around 60 yards. I soft yelp again and he hammers down. He goes into full strut and puts on a show. We let him come in to 20 yards and I tell little man to shot when he is ready. 410 with tss #9 drops him graveyard dead. 9 in. Beard 1 inch spurs and weights around 21 to 22 pounds
