struck up two birds right off the roost this morning. setup and had a jake come in silent. then messed around with the toms for 45 minutes until the hen they were with walked off into the hardwood bottom opposite from me. had to be somewhere at 9, so started backing out and checking fields as i went. last field i came to had a hen in it. hit the dirt, laid down in the clover and not 10 seconds later those same two toms appear behind the hen, and they all start walking directly towards me. waited on their heads to clear some brush and threw up the 870 and shot. two year old and not my most exciting hunt but dead's dead. back at it in the morning.
