We got 2 Toms down on opening morning but just before we shot the second one a single hen came in behind us.

Opening morning had 2 hens cross the big open field in front of me. Probably 15 minutes later i made a call and a hen came out into the field by herself (from the same area as the other hens) and a couple minutes later i had a tom come out to the field and gobble and strut. The lone hen called at him but apparently he liked my calling a little better....Or just got pissed at my jake mobile rubbing up on my swingin hen well, ten minutes and 200 yrds later he was at 26 yards, made one last gobble and i dropped the hammer on him. He dropped like a sack of potatoes after the strike from my 20 gauge 3" winchester double magnum #4 load

He was 19.4 lbs 8 inch beard and 7/8" spurs
