[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5305107, member: 2805"] I'm not that good :( In 33 years I've managed to call ONE bird off his hens to come 100y to me. I've called a couple dozen birds off jennies to the gun from 100y and out, but they weren't adult hens. If he is with an adult hen, I have to make the decision whether to ambush him (don't enjoy that) or sneak to within 50 to 75y of them and soft call and scratch to pull him just far enough off his real hen to give me a check. Not saying it can't be done... but after trying unsuccessfully for years, I no longer waste my time just talking to a single tom locked up with hens. (NOT that it is fruitless... I have called in satellite birds that were flanked well off the main flock). And you know what... its perfectly OK to get your ass handed to you in the turkey woods! [/QUOTE]
