Thunder struck..
Headed out this morning around 9 after I got off work. I thought the rain had passed and I knew a spot that usually produces after a rain! I got to the gate at 9:15 and headed out even though the sky was getting darker by the minute. When I got close to the spot I wanted to set up a clap of thunder off in the distance was followed by some gobbling thunder! I set up quick and let out a series of yelps. He came running and I stopped him with some cuts! He gobbled 3 times back to back. It was 9:26 when I was standing on his head!

Re: Thunder struck..
Don't know about showing you how it's done, but you know there is an open spot anytime you're ready!

Re: Thunder struck..
Out of curiosity, what type of place do you say "Produces after a rain?" Food plot???

Re: Thunder struck..
Not a food plot. It's a small clearing (probably 30yds X 60yds) that is on top of a really tall ridge surrounded by hardwoods. This is the 4th bird in as many years I've killed off that spot. All after a rain had just stopped!
Re: Thunder struck..
I figured an open-spot of some sort as they do like to dry out following a rain and can't say I blame 'em. Great bird and thanks for sharing.
