Default RE: Louisiana Opening Weekend

My LA. hunt didn't go as planned. Quite frankly, I'm pissed off at my damn turkeys. I've been watching and filming two longbeards on my property for a month. I had one on film last Wed. strutting at 50 yards. That's only three days before the opener. My worst nightmare came true. Both longbeards disappeared on opening day. I heard one of them gobble on a hunting lease that borders my land about half a mile away. He went the other way. Sunday morning I heard both gobblers, about a half mile away. They both went the opposite direction after flydown. What upsets me the most is that these two longbeards have been roosting on my property since Jan. in the same place. They were still roosting in the same place up until Friday before the opener. I just knew I was going to get one of them this past weekend. That's turkey hunting for you. If someone else doesn't kill them, they will probably cruise back through my place sooner or later. I'm going to keep after them until I get one or find out they have been shot. I'm going to hunt them a couple of days this week and this weekend, then I'm going to Tenn. for four or five days next week.
