Lets just say my season so far has been tuff. Well this morning while sitting in my truck at work about 6:20 this morning. I see a turkey behind a guys truck Im thinking what the **** begn. First thing a do is grab a mouth call and had him gobblin like crazy. Then I remember my camera was in my vest in the back seat. So while I was taking a pic of him strutting. I hear a bird fly down of the roof. I look and there is a hen 3ft from the truck. Well thats all it took from him he came running all the way to the truck. In full strut he went under my door to get in front of her. Almost thought about jumping on him. He strutted for about 5min around her then she laid down for him about 3ft from the truck.

You can probably do a search and pull up that old thread. It was close to the end of his 2007 deer season.

A true classic story.

That's pretty awesome. And I can certainly see where it would be frustrating. Those pics are priceless. You need to send those in to some different magazines.
