We just finished up our second three day hunt on public land. Nothing but jakes. Going back in the woods in about a week. Good luck to you guys, keep at em!

I hear ya Western MA, you ready to bust a head now! Haha!

Hey Ray, have you been hearing many gobble?

LOL! Know the birds are not through like I thought! Guess there just not on my land right now. Talked to some friends this morn and they combined 6 good birds this weekend. All were in the afternoon, and all were with other gobblers! No hens around, still sounds late.

Hey EFH, We have been hearing a few gobbles but not that many. Public land birds get worked pretty hard and that tends to make them somewhat quiet. I did get on a bird on my last day of my hunt but could not move on him due to another hunter in the same area. We have had alot of rain in the last week so many of the areas that we wanted to try are now under water. Will be back in the woods on Monday.... Congrats on all your birds. You are really cleaning up.

Keep at em RPD. Ive got 12 days and counting before I leave for Missouri. The 18th is the opener. I'll hunt for 3 days if need be. Come home work a day and if need be head back out for another 10 days coming back to hunt Indianas opener and a few days before heading out again to Missouri if I have killed by then. Dang that sounds confusing hahaha The turkey bug is biting bad. I can feel the rush coming. Dang I cant wait...

Good luck RPD63!! 12 more days here before the season starts. Haven't been seeing many turkeys around at all this year so I'm hoping things will get better by then, weather is suppose to get near 60 this weekend. Hoping the warmer weather will get the turkeys active!!!

Still have to wait till 25th here in MA & 27th I believe for NY... Then Game on!!!
Gonna shoot one with the bow this year i hope too... Just picked up some of them Magnus Bullheads... nasty things!

I will be sending the stickers out this weekend.

local NWTF banquet tomorrow afternoon... that usually fires me up even more!

EFH, are you still hunting? Havent seen you posting any more birds for the team lately!!

Yea man! You know I've been in the woods! Been hunting through this mid season lull I guess. Actually heard my first gobble in over a week on my land today. The bad thing is, I couldnt tell I had a couple hundred yards to close to setup good on him and I was fired up, but the dang thing only gobbled twice and for the life of me I couldn't tell if he was left or right! Haha!!! Hopefully he won't be so tight lipped in the mornin. Man the bugs are tuff too, it was like 69deg. when I got out the truck at 5 this morning!
You don't have long to wait now, are you ready yet?
