.......this weekend for my grandson and myself. I'm gonna use everything in my trick bag to try and get one close enough for Jake to get a shot at. We gave it a rest last weekend as he went caving in Kentuck with his scout troop and I've already tagged out. As tough as it's been this year, we'll need a good bit of luck, but we're gonna give it our best . Good luck to all who are going out this last weekend.

Good luck.
I think I am going to make the 2 1/2 hour plus drive South for one more hunt on Saturday. Keep wondering if it is worth the drive at 3.09 a gallon but I will never know unless I go.

I guess the drive was worth it. Didn't see a bird but worked a couple. Had one gobbling for over 1/2 hour that was so close but never saw him because of to much brush. Had another answer me pretty close just past noon. Never saw a bird but had some intense moment where I really thought I was going to get it done. Oh well, can't wait till next year!

Well, we struck out over the weekend. Only heard two gobbles each morning, both a long ways off on some private property. We put out the decoy and made some feeding calls for a few hours each day, but it was a no-show from Mr. Tom. To Jakes credit, he never complained, or wanted to throw in the towel. Hopefully, grandpa will do a better job at calling one in for him next year. It wasn't a total bust though. My long-time hunting buddy scored a bird on Sunday by still hunting, of all things. When the tactics you're using don't bring results, try something different!
