You actually wore underwear?Novice? You shot a super good bird on opening day!
I was using my old Winchester 1300 pump 12 gauge with Winchester Long Beard XR #4’s, it’s got a MADD (Drury Bro.s) choke in it probably .650 or .625, somewhere in that range, I let out 2 soft yelps with a Will Primos WP1 mouth call then he came strutting up and over a terrace at 35 yards.
I had on my Rocky snake boots, old DuxBack camo, sprayed down with Permethrin tick spray, Hanes T-Shirt along with Hanes underwear, and Converse calf high socks.
So if anyone’s connected with these companies I’m available to advertise for ya’ll, we can discuss compensation and perks.
I turned them inside out, mom always said to wear clean undies.
What a season so far. Seen more turkeys on public than the last 3 years combined.
I've set up 3 times in one particular area where there are 2 big toms, a jake and a few hens roosting. Each time they've given us the slip and moved on the opposite direction than where we think. Tried to hurry and get in front of them to cut them off, but they make it to the private land fence just in the nick of time. The roost is on private, they fly down onto public and are back on another private spot within the first hour.
Big problem is their strut zone is wide open area near some oilfield equipment. If i try to set up on their flydown spot there is nowhere to hide myself. One of the toms is a beast, biggest Tom I've seen on public. My last chance to hunt will be Wed. I plan to be there at flydown once again to find a way to get in front of them. I might just pop a squat behind of the tanks and hope they go that way. If not, ill be there at roost time to catch them on the way up. These toms are causing me to lose sleep, lol.

Stay after them!!! It ain’t over until the fat lady sings. 
If you’re able, get you a good leafy suite and set up in the open that you mentioned. Pulled it off like that a time or two.
Heck of a nice bird! You did well!
Hit that open area and don't move. I've taken toms walking across an open field just by stopping and letting them come to me.
Or May 17th gets here.Stay after them!!! It ain’t over until the fat lady sings.
Don’t give up it will happen!!!
Patterned two more turkey loads today and tried out the Holosun 509t red dot, and both loads and the sight performed well.
Nice looking set-up!
I have a dot on a Turkish AR style 12 ga. The boys at the trap range didn't really like that when I went to the line with it. Put that dot about 6" in front of the clay, follow through and it's a break every time.
