Well, me and a buddy passed on some jakes this morning, and looking back I wish I had taken one. Not because I want to get on the board with it, but because I want some fried turkey with Cracker Girl seasoning! Cannot wait for that! And there ain't no better eating than a good jake!

Well team I feel like a junkie looking for a fix. The birds have been getting all worked up the last few days. Today I was out working on the mower. I could hear 4 toms it was surround sound. I can't wait for saturday. Good luck to all.

Got my Best Gobbler yet !!
Tue. I checked out the two areas I wanted to for Rios and saw no sign so I headed home for 5 hrs sleep and headed out for some Merriam's in a new area I had not been in but believed it held some turkeys.
I arrived and parked my truck at 730 am and to the believed roost area about 815am.
I thought there was a good chance of finding a gobbler still strutting and soon I found a hen yelping so I followed her hoping she had a tom with her and shortly I found him strutting for her.
I stayed mostly out of sight following what I found was a small flock consisting of 1 big gobbler 1 smaller gobbler several jakes and at least 3 hens. I was busted once by the jakes but I froze and they never sounded the alarm, I was waiting to get ahead of them but never could, I challenged the hen but she never came.
They went up a mountain and I set up by another roost area, they came down but not to me so when they headed into some trees I ran around out of sight and about 125 yards closer so when they came out I could get a shot.
I got my shot when they all came out of the trees and took him down at 40 yards.
