My best friend invited me to his ranch near Beeville. I decided to try and call a Tom in. I knew the basic area they were roosting in, so I got set up well before daylight and waited.
Around 6:45, I heard the first gobble from the roost. They were close!
I resisted the urge to call until around 7:00. At 7:10, a jake flew down and went straight for the decoy. As soon as he got to the decoy, 8 gobblers went crazy and came in, chased the jake off, and started strutting.
I shot the biggest one as soon as I had the shot.
What a rush.
