    Congratulations! Gobbler may have been chased off by another Tom and that’s probably why he didn’t come in. Even read Jakes will run a gobbler off.

    @Cameron could be! He was also hung up with a hen but he didnt like the jake decoy that morning to come within 60 yds

    @Mason Seeing lot of articles saying to avoid using male decoys. Talked to another hunter that only uses a hen decoy with much better success.
