[QUOTE="ElkStalkR, post: 1768074, member: 2292"] Well this guy is just a jake, but probably one of my more memorable turkeys to date as their is a story that goes with it. My parents have been seeing some turkeys down the street from their "neighborhood". They live outside of town, not in the city limits, but in a little subdivision none the less with about 3-5 acre lots. The birds like to strut down on a corner lot near the "main intersection". We know the neighbors really well and I secured permission to hunt in his front yard, which put me only about 1/4 mile away from the birds. The first day I had two gobblers working to me perfectly and I thought it was gonna happen until another neighbor let his dogs out and that was the end of that. So that evening I discovered the birds were roosting right across the street on an undeveloped quarter section. Tracked down the owner and got shot down as he allows no hunting. So back to plan A. Mid-morning the next day this guy started calling and talked to me for about 45 minutes before crossing the road and committing to come in. As soon as he crossed the property line I let him have it. I could only stand their and laugh as I had just called a turkey into my neighbors front yard and harvested it. Thats one nice thing about spring turkey hunting. If you can just get permission NEAR the birds you can call them over if you are patient enough.
