Another Jake encounter

[Kevin J Legg]

After going to the gym this morning I decided to take a look for some late morning turkeys. I walked over a hill and saw a bunch of jakes at the far end of the field. Set up and called but they didn't respond so I made a move and got within 125 yards and set up again. After 45 minutes and no response I decided I'd move over and check the spot out for a good place to setup some morning. To my and their surprise I popped up 25 yards from 6 jakes that were lounging in the edge of the field. Could have shot any of them but they just stood up and I let them slowly walk away. Likely the wind masked my noise.
