snapper Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Yesterday morning started emperor me....not a peep on the roost! Wasn't til after an hour after light I heard my first bird. Called him in but turned out to be two jakes giggling at the same time. After a few mins. they moved on...I waited about a half hour and started calling again. In came the two jakes again...behind a good bird! They circled around to my right and I couldn't make the turn. After a few mins....I called some more in my best sexy hen calling. He came back and I was already turned and waiting for him Took him at 15 yards with a #5 remington hevi-shot! 10" beard...1 1/8" and 1 1/4" spurs. Not sure if this picture will work...won't let me upload into my photos from this phone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
