[QUOTE="Layne, post: 5071070, member: 5850"] Yeah wouldn't say you did anything wrong from what you describe, if you were silent for a long period and he never came down that ridge then not sure what else you could do. Most times I find if he is alone and gobbling he will eventually come if you go silent on him... what very well may have happened is that he gobbled on that ridge until he called in a hen and then followed her off. I had a bird last week that would gobble and never close in, I went silent for a while and he just continued to gobble from his little wood lot, I figured he had a hen so I just really got aggressive with my calling and he and the hen eventually came over onto our property. Just never know what a bird is going to do, it's what makes the hunts exciting. [/QUOTE]
