Title: Finally
Post by: shadowchaser on February 01, 2014, 12:22:30 AM
Up here in Wayne County using my new shockwave I won from a Boondock Outdoors drawing on Facebook.  Started off low with nutty nutthatch for 5 mins, went silent for 5 minutes, then blasted snowhoe 1 for 2 minutes, and the woods came alive!!  2 greys came busting up out of the swamp and I turned it down low, then I heard something behind me and here's another grey in a thorn bush.  I turn back around pop one 10 feet from the call, turn around as foxbang switched to platinum and missed one behind me.  I start walking to retrieve and the other one was sitting a few yards staring at the decoy.  I tried to get my gun up, but it bounced.  So pumped!! Still missing, but finally.

My question is why 3?  Was I possibly near a territory border?  The one I shot was a female.

My summation is because it's mating season and the males are out around the females in heat.

Called in 2 more after I posted at another spot but no shot.  I was actually still in the woods when I posted :P.  First stand tonight called in 2 greys and dropped 1.  Next spot called in 2 yotes, but had the shotty and they hung up 100+ yards away.  If I had the .223 I had a shot, but oh well.  Had a great mini trip to Wayne County!!!  Time to get me a red in Susquehanna now.

And the Shockwave is a beast.  The volume is crazy compared to a Spitfire.  Definitely a huge upgrade.
