i got a lot of new stuff to throw at these turkeys this year. just got a new hoyt alphamax 32 for christmas, got one deer with it in late season and now will hopefully break it in on a big longbeard. I also just got a new gander mountain vital blind to help out gettin one with the bow.
tried the last 2 years with the bow and had lots of chances but always tried without a blind and had a tough time drawing. i hope that will be a deadly combo for me with the blind and faster bow. not sure what broadheads i will be using yet but use mouth calls mainly but also a primos ring zone slate call

I will primarily be using my Rem. 870 SPS-T thumbhole 12 ga. with a Jellyhead choke shooting Rem. Wingmaster HD's in 3 1/2 inch 6 shot. That is a deadly combination. I'll do a little bow hunting with my PSE and carbon expresses tipped with Spitfire 100's. I'm going out this weekend to listen. Only 2 weeks away for me.

I have sent messages to the three no shows. Hopefully they will show up soon so we can have a 100% check in. Didn't get to go out this morning to listen. It's been raining all day. I'm planning to try again in the morning. I'm ready to hear some gobbles to fire me up.

Went this morning to listen, but all was quiet. I believe the cold front that came through yesterday gave them lockjaw. It was in the mid 30's this morning, and of course windy. The first few weeks in March always seems to be the worst weather. I guess it's that transitional period between Winter and Spring. I did see some fresh sign this morning though, so all was not lost. Guys, we need to pick a captain. I have been captain before, so I will volunteer my services. If you all want to vote, that's perfectly fine. If anyone else wants to be captain, let us know now. Season will open very soon. Mine in two weeks, and some in only one, so we need to get that out of the way. Also, we need some suggestions for names. I'll try to think of a few. Everyone try to keep in touch every so often. It doesn't matter if you are hunting yet or not.
