Outfoxed another hunter on a nice public land bird!

Unsuccessful guy was yelping his head off, the tom was gobbling back to him alot. Meanwhile i softly talked back to his hens and eventually snuck around and called him away and dropped him at 40 yards.

No photo, got to get to work!

Heres a pic of phone - with the family enjoying the bird!
 
Nice. You snuck around and started calling to a bird that another hunter was working. Gotta love public land hunting.
 
I was there 30 minutes before other guy, had been there Working it 4 days in a row.

Sadly he probably didnt know i was there. I was calling like a hen and he was calling like a tv show hunter
 
Most often, public land turkey hunting, with 2 guys after one very vocal bird, results in two frustrated unsuccessful hunters. I ve had tons of promising setups ruined by other hunters. I know its part of the game.

In no way did i rush in and screw this other guy over... not sure if thats what you are implying but i would not come in late to the party and jump in the middle of someone else's setup. I was between gobbler and hen on one side and two more hens behind me = great position.

He was not gonna kill this bird. There were three hens and they were all FLEEING his boisterous and unnatural calling. Guess where gobbler was going, no matter how much he gobbled back to hunter?
