i called him in til he was about 50 yards out. then he turned and started going back the way he came. i watched him and thought i had screwed up. i started to call again and watched him go behind a brush pile about that time a hen flew out the brush and ran about ten yards from me. he turned back round and started to follow her and he went about 25 to 30 yards from me and i took the shot.
i didnt think i stood a chance i mean i had never went before, i went by myself, and got in the woods late but sure enough there he is
