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?

Gettin there EFH, checkd one spot today and there was 7 strutt'n around out out in the field. They were out in the field all afternoon but they all appeared to be jakes but not sure on the two that were just over the rise in the field could see red heads but they didnt give the opportunity to see their beards. Did get the GREEN LIGHT on permission to hunt that spot again this year. It was 64 degrees here today so maybe that will get the turkeys to start showin themselves better now------I HOPE!!!!

Nice bird Western MA, and good luck to you EFH!! Went out this morning for a drive and actually seen a few toms out strutting around so hopefully things keep getting better now that the weather has warmed a bit. Checked the trail cam yesterday and only one picture of a single hen on it so I moved it to another spot for a few days now. Hopefully this team will be busy next week posting a bunch of birds to put us in the #1 spot!!!

Just wanted to give an update. Hunted Sat all day and Monday AM and it's slow for me. Lots of shenanigans on private land opening day with idiots....Hopefully things will turn around.

Keep at em blackheel. I leave this Sunday for Missouri. I'll be ready to get on em for Missouris opener on the 18th. Seeing that I wont have access to a computer, I need someone to step up and score the birds while Im gone and post them in the scoring thread. Any volunteers. If I happen to kill one while Im in Missouri Turkey Goddess will post the pics for me and give the measurments. Good luck to all and be safe
