Stroff and his team are determined to come out on top, and they put everything they've learned over the last two days into their hunt. After several hours of searching, they finally spot a tom that they know is a contender. They set up their decoys and make their call, hoping to draw the bird in. The tense standoff that follows lasts for what seems like an eternity, but in the end, Stroff manages to take down the tom, securing a spot in the top three.
The final weigh-in takes place that evening, and Stroff and his team nervously wait to see where they will place.

They celebrate their victory with their friends from the Muzzy team before packing up and heading back home.
