All of a sudden the treetops start to explode above you.\u00a0 Nice job genius, I think you were trying to get in a little too close.11 – Hung Up BirdsYou see them . . . they are gobbling at your every call . . . but they are not moving! \u00a0A frustrating experience, here\u2019s what you can do: Turkey Hunting Indian Style12 – Road BlockMorning light has yet to break, but you think you have the perfect set-up for those thunder chickens gobbling their heads off on the roost just 60 yards away.\u00a0 As the sun begins to rise, you see the birds pitch down and just now notice the 5 strand barbed wire fence between your decoys and the actual birds\u2026ughhh!13 – Uninvited CoyotesApparently they were on the prowl for some dinner also.\u00a0 It\u2019s not so bad if they come into your empty decoy set (bang), but when they decide to burst out of nowhere and scare off the approaching birds, now that\u2019s maddening!"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/community.legendarywhitetails.com\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Legendary Whitetail's Blog"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/community.legendarywhitetails.com\/blog\/turkey-hunter-problems\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Turkey Hunter Problems"}}]}]
