Got number 3 yesterday. I finally heard a gobble after flydown when I went to a big field around 8:30am and called with a box call. I barely could hear him when he answered but I knew where he was and knew where they usually came up the ridge to get into the corner of the field so I had to take a chance and hurry to get up there and get set up before they came over the hill. So I hurried the 300 yards up the hill and got set up then have a couple soft yelps, 2 mins later I could hear them in the leaves and him drumming. His 2 hens came by first then him, they were 25 yards when they came under the fence so I shot him as soon as he stopped and popped his head up. I thought he was heavier than he was before I weighed him but it must have been the mile and a half I had to walk out with him over my shoulder lol. He was 20lbs even, 9 1/2" beard and 1 1/8 spurs.

Here he is later in some dales/worschishire/bud lite/ and butter.
