Had 2 come in from behind on each side of me. They passed by at 3 ft and the lucky contestant got put down around 10 yds or less.

The bird still on the roost. It's quiet enough out that I hope I can hear him fly down. I hadn't heard the hen anymore.

And here I got a small job to work on today but I’m open the rest of the week. Did the same thing last year, only last year I thought opening day was on a Saturday and I was down by my pond watching two Toms strut right in front of my blind thinking I couldn’t hunt. Lol

I've got the heat cranked up in the ground blind I set yesterday. Was like a waterfall all morning with the snow melting off. It's melting everywhere now.
I had two gobblers come past at 7:45, one about 100 yards uphill of me and the other about 100 yards downhill of me. They kept gobbling at each other, but seemed to ignore my calling.
I'm gonna have to quit and head to work soon, but should have a couple hours tomorrow morning also.

The tom circled around behind me. I had previously anticipated that may happen so I had a nice shooting lane. As he was coming around, three jakes charged him causing him to run through my shooting lane. I wanted to shoot the lead jakes beak right off his face.
I decided to just relax and see if he'll come back. He sounds like he's gobbling in the woods west of me a few hundred yards. I'm going to finish my coffee, swap out my black ground clothing for my mossy oak camo and go after him.
I'm still so so surprised that I heard anything this morning. I couldn't be happier to have such a blessed place to be

Two jakes knocked my jake decoy over. I haven't fixed it though because there's two gobblers way out in the field.

Awesome morning. Never heard a bird on the roost. Finally had a bird gobbling on the ridge in front of me. When he made it to my field he ignored the decoys.....strutting & gobbling 150-200 yards from me. After an hour of that 2 gobblers came in from behind me and ran off the first gobbler. Once they saw my decoys the came running in. The bird I killed ended up being a 2 yo. I'm staying in the blind a few hours to scout for my Dad & nephew. I've got a bird gobbling his head off right now
