Looks like a great opportunity once the season opens.

Looks like you shoot regularly, so, I think you can figure out how to take care of that

Too cool!  

I would be torn between wanting to hunt them, and wanting them to stick around.

Let us know if you go after them!

At least you'll know the distance, but what if they have been watching you practice and don't show up.

If they watched me practice they would already know they have little to fear.

Wow! wish I had that problem. Was Up at our cabin the last 2 days. Heard 1 bird gobble this am. The last three years, the turkey population has been declining. Last year  I hunted 14 days, did not hear a bird gobble 4 days. finally shot a jake the last day.

I guess that cuts down on the scouting time required.
