was able to sneak out for a few this am. 
 Took, my buddies wife again in hopes of helping her tag out, in her first season hunting.  At the first set up it was very windy but we had a bird on roost gobble maybe 6 times, then a hen way down the valley made a call and we never heard the bird again.  I said we can wonder around here for a lil or go back to where you got your first bird, at which she instantly said "yes lets go there" pulled up to second spot, i stepped out of car made a loud yelp, and heard one up on the MTN, again she said lets go.  So i grabbed the decoys and down off the bank we went.  We ended up sitting in the same exact spot where she had harvested her first bird, and where my friend harvested his second bird on this past Sunday.  Once i set the decoys out and we got settled i made a loud aggressive yelp and instantly the bird answered now, half way down the MTN, headed our was.  I looked over and said he is coming you ready. "yes i am" She replied.  About 10 min went by with the tom answering every call but not moving to far, he had hung up.  I told her we are not gonna call until he calls looking for me, and after about another 5 min he let out a loud gobble now much closer. Again i told her, he is coming, and i let out a soft purr followed by a yelp.  at which time he replied with no joke six gobbles in a row, as i all of a sudden watch him jump down off a ledge about 80 yards away.  Again i stopped calling and let him work down the bank until he saw the decoys.
He turned at about 60 yards and V lined it straight at the Jake decoy, the whole time i am hearing can i shoot i can see him. I whispered no he will be very close soon. Thankfully she held off and when the bird was about 5 yards from the decoy i said you can take him now, ill call and get his head up
