    Sounds like a very productive evening. Maybe if you had a decoy out, the first tom might’ve committed to your calls?

    Dart, Gut was too busy grabbing a beer out of the fridge, turning up the ac, flipping channels on the big screen inside that new blind and besides his recliner was too comfy to throw out any stinkin decoys.

    Good Report Gut!

    That’s one way of keeping him still!
