I come to MS with Rickey to hunt public land and get a jump on turkey season. He was kind enough to let me shoot first and I botched it up, knocked down a nice gobbler we had called up right off the limb the first morning. He didn't stay down though. He got on his feet and proceeded to run just a little faster than me. Never found him.
We have heard very little gobbling and Rickey has walked me in the ground. This morning after hearing only one bird that was on private land we were looking for a good setup and heard what I thought was a jake yelp. We set up and Rickey made a few yelps and purrs and I immediately heard drumming! I never took out a call and Rickey had that bird in my face in less than ten minutes. This time it was lights out. Now Rickey has two turns!
