An old, very accomplished turkey hunter trained me 20 years ago.... he always did a PUT just before I would shoot........told me.... son, their head is moving all around, back and forth..... when you " Put " its their attention call and they stop and raise their head as high as they can to look around...providing a far superior target, a nice stretched out neck and very still..........but be ready, cuz they will stare you down....... I have not missed any when heeding his training and advice......

I had one gobbling like that a couple of weeks ago on my place in SC. Called him from the roost, across a pasture and paved road to within 60 yards of me then hung up. He stopped in a logging road where he could strut but where he couldn't see my decoys. I endured his gobbling for nearly an hour before he gave up and wandered off. But it was one of the best hunts I've had since I starting turkey hunting in 1983.
