    Had a tom come to 40 yards this morning, and I never drew back because I thought he’d come right into the DSD and pretty girl. He’s sitting in a corn field strutting and gobbling now. I guess i’ll wait him out

    Good luck! Wish I was out hunting instead of the office getting griped at by coworkers.

    Good luck to you! Patience kills more turkeys than anything, and 40 is a long shot at a turkey unless dead-still (which they rarely are).

    When I have a shotgun in my hands however, my rule is always to take the first shot within range that you can comfortably make!

    I wasn’t comfortable with the shot so I had to pass

    Can’t kill ’em with your pants down!

    No ill-intent, congrats on making the right move. I can’t say I’ve always done the same!
