Cornfield gobbler

[gobblergetter]

With the hay fields getting high and the underbrush getting thick, most birds can be found in the open corn fields  where they feel safe from predators. 

In the past I would always go to the corn fields whenever it was raining  for two reasons. One so I could set up a blind and stay dry but also because the birds went there.

It took awhile but with lots of patience I was finally able to get a Gobbler to get close enough to see my decoys and commit.

It felt good having a Gobbler within gun range and I savored the moment and enjoyed the show before doing the dirty deed.

Nope, that's just for the first one each season.

There's a reason for that

I liked the time you posted up video.

Edge of a cornfield the famer stopped is combine climbed down and moved your hen decoy.
