He says they don’t roost on his place.

Roosting then is a great idea but hard to do and although I have successfully done it half a dozen times to tree and dozens to few hundred yard area I am still 0 for 1000. A lot of shite can still go wrong.

You need a podnuh to go with you and have him set up just like you have been doing but have him post up about 40 yards farther back than you.
Make sure you trust him to not shoot you or your bird.


This. Or call very very quietly. Or just be patient and wait a week or so.

Some birds are just hardasses that like to strut and make the hens come to them. You have to give the bird blue balls by teasing him. Very soft calls, just some purrs and scratching leaves like you are a hen that’s feeding and want nothing to do with his dick.

Sometimes if you wait a week or so and then more hens are all bred then they will become more antsy to come in. The other option as said is to deer hunt em.

Don’t give up man, you can do it. Bring someone with u and get them to call. Every single time I have done this I have either had shots at jakes that I passed on or super close calls to a kill. They should be 40 feet or so behind u
