Dude I can't believe you said that[

You said you were in on 23 kills this spring and you bagged two up north and your having a so so year
I killed two this spring and I consider my self as being blessed!!!(difference between public and private)
How many kills make a season a great season????
Longbeard, I was being sarcastic for a change
This year has been the best year to work birds , that I have seen for years. The thing that I seen was that if it was not for the private land presure there would be a heck of a lot more turkeys taken.
As you said it is nice to see a Gobbling Strutting Tom come in , but I don't see it often either. Most kills are walking, stop look around , walk and stop to the gun. A turkey hunter has to take what he gets if he wants to be successfull.
I have heard hunters here talk about the season being hard , but I don't see it in that way this year.
Talk about hunting presure , I had some action with a hunter yesterday that wanted to setup his decoy 10 feet from mine. When I asked him if he would give me room, he told me to move mine. So I said I would do it for him if he don't ,,he picked up and move a whole 40 yards away. Well for a change I gave back what I put up with and waited for good light as the turkeys started gobbling 50 yards away and I got up and walked right across the midle of a plowed field in front of the roost and setup on a ridge away from them 3 guys that crowded me and I got into other birds.
Needless to say when I returned to ask how the fellows made out and if they had any Luck (after hearing the gobbler heading the other way) these guys were gone [:@] I like to see everyone have a good chance at a Gobbler , just like I get
