First off its no super quality by any means, but we enjoy taping our hunts.

Been fairly tough hunting as they are pretty quiet here at the moment and not really interested in decoys, but we got in done yesterday about noon.

Worked for me, both were what i would say two year olds with 9+ beards.

Brother shot the first one, and I hate to say it but i miss judged the second bird the first shot. But made the adjustment. Both were around 30yds.

They didn't want anything to do with the jake and hen decoy on the oppisite side of the blind and choose to strut/eat on the oppisite side.

My brother shot the blind the weekend before and I will post that also, better footage as well. enjoy

Two birds often come in much more aggressively (make it a race?, more confident when not alone?) and if one is shot, the other often risks no time in letting the downed bird know how he truly feels. As smart as they can be, they can sure be "dummied" by that easy target. If the bird is missed - they all usually are gone in a heartbeat.

I have had them rip up my dead bird. I once killed a two year old gobbler and three jakes came running in cutting and yelping up a storm. My hunting partner was hunting separate and about a half mile away. He could not see it and could not imagine what was going on. I finally had to walk out there to get them to stop tearing up my bird.

For you that have seen my video from last year, it was the same exact spot and had three jakes come and thump my gobbler last year.

There is not a ton of pressure on turkeys where I hunt so they are not as smart as some birds I have hunted. This year there has been getting to be a fair amount of hunters and it has changed things alittle.

We figured that we would get both if we shot the first one, but I had my eye on a bigger bird, but it was an easy target and I was ready to fling an arrow or two as in this case.

Turkeys seem to be best of friends until someone gets shot and then they take advantage of them.

      Problems with Yetti

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
