Called in this nice bird.  He beat up my Avian jake for a while before I shot him.  9 1/2" beard and 1 1/2" spurs.  My decoy doesn't want to hunt with me any more.  Every time he gets his butt kicked.

Nice!  Did you just use the jake decoy or did you have a hen too?

Congrats on a fine bird and a great shot. Tell your decoy that getting his butt kicked once in a while beats the heck out of just sitting on a shelf in the basement.

Thanks all.  I also set a hen with the jake, but the turkeys just walked right around her - never gave her a look.  The jake decoy must look like he has an "attitude" or something, he always gets beat up.  Going to give him one more work out before I let him retire until next year.
