So my dad and I were turkey hunting this past week and I had a big tom fired up. We snuck to within 100 yards or so. I did some softs clucks and purrs and he went crazy and headed our way fast. When he got to about 25 yards I heard the two worst back-to-back sounds in the world when my dad took the shot, the sound of only a cap going off followed by the sound of feathers flapping as the bird flew off.
What steps do you guys take to help prevent this from happening? I've noticed before that when I left my gun loaded for a few days during turkey season it has mis-fired before as well. How often should a person leave his gun loaded during the turkey season before shooting it and re-loading it?
