Hi ya fellow turkey hunters!

JW here and I am hunting TN, MI, WI and maybe KS and NE.

I see a few names I recognize and one ole fart too!

Let's get it on!

Dave.....JW

Checking in! :happy0001: I fly over to Kona tommorow (March 2) and will be doing the dance Sat & Sun. Best of luck to my fellow fevered fools. I'll be hunting HI and AL (so far it's Easterns 4, JoeA 0)

My offerings for Team 3 name:
-Fan-glorious Flockers
-Beard Busters

Hey guys. Checking in from Kansas. Got a new camera I'm gonna try out this year. I hope to bring some footage to the team. I'm gonna be primarily hunting with a bow. We're gonna get her done. My bow hunting team won the deer hunting contest so hopefully we can continue. Jw if you make it to se ks give me a shout.

Checking in and raring to go! I'll be hunting TN primarily. Lawrence and Giles counties. JW, I believe we had mentioned in the past trying to hook up when you are in TN. I am game if you still are! May hunt a weekend in GA and possibly in AL on some family land, but it's never been hunted for turkey and #'s are low on it. TN will be my primary source of birds. Went scouting again yesterday morning and saw 14 gobblers! A couple of em are far bigger than any bird I've ever killed! Same farm produced a bird that scored 72.15 for me a couple years ago and these looked bigger than him! Man...I can't wait! Good luck, all!

574mag checking in. I will be hunting north central IN on private land. I haven't hunted spring birds the last couple of years as I have been trying to get one in the fall and we are only allowed one a year but I am excited about this spring I can't wait!

Geez I think I hunt Giles too.......as I get closer we certainly can meet for coffee....

I am not sure what part of KS Birddog......but again if close we meet like above.

Dave.......JW

Team 3-points on the board!
 

Hi gang,
I got permission to post this so...
Sunday, I busted a decent 2yr old. Here's the stats: weight 11#, beard 8", l spur .875", r spur .750

It was not the prettiest of ends, but he stopped to look back, and ....
The scene got buggered by some cows, but Rem. Wingmaster HD #6
helped seal the deal.

Next month, AL here I come.

Joe can you post a pic of the bird on the team thread here. I saw your pic on the main turkey forum. Thanks

Your score is 11 + 7.5 + 8.75 + 16 = 43.25

Way to go Joe! Busting em early!

Where you hunting in AL, Joe?

Here's the necessary pix: left spur, right spur, beard and full body shot.

It took a bit of work. I couldn't get him or the longer bearded tom to break away from 7 hens. I waited for 1.5 hrs hoping they'd move towards the trees they were kinds walking towards when I spotted them. Once the hens filtered downhill, the two toms followed. I stalked after them, only to have a cow suddenly enter the scene from my right, trotting towards me.

The turkeys spooked, and so I popped over the edge of the bowl and busted the tom who stopped to look back. 35-40yds with 3" Rem. Wingmaster HD #6 (my Briley x-full turkey choke loves this stuff)

I'm hoping to bust a bigger one in AL next month.

Nice Joe :)

Checking in, I’ll be hunting Illinois. I too was on the team that won the bow hunting contest this year.
Congrats to Joe to be the first to connect, I still have to wait another month and a half.

I guess I'll step up and be the team captain. I've participated in the contest for several years, so it's about time.

Does anyone have any objections "Fan-glorious Flockrz" as our team name?

Please PM me your personal e-mail and a snail mail address.

1st - way to go Joe!!
2nd - you got my vote for team captain - I help run this contest so I am busy scoring and posting team scores.......thanks Joe

3rd - I am gone quite a bit as I hunt several states and have another home in the north of WI......I am retired! and living the dream!

JW

Joe for captain I second it.

Team name is fine too.

Email is [email protected]

What the hell is snail mail?

Hey just checking in. I'll be hunting Missouri and Kansas.

Hey one! Welcome aboard. Good Luck!

USA Postal service is snail mail.....

BB are you also on Modernsportsman.com?

JW

Well we got two to check in - Ken has been n this contest for a few years too and dog1 I hunt with on occasion so I will ring that ole farts chain and get him here......

Stay safe out there men!

JW

Well I would guess I'm the Old Fart JW! is referring to, so I'm signing in. Bad as I hate to admit it, I'd rather be on a team with JW! than on one against him.

Looks like a good team, so lets kick some butt! Good hunting to all.

dog1

That's a good doggy.....:)

Folks Ole Dog will bring in at least 2 good Toms - I do know his goal is a 25 lb minimum wt limit. Let's hope he hits that this year.

But I told him he wants a biggun he needs to head north!

JW

Checked in checked in!

Thanks for the email, I totally forgot the teams were put together on the first. LOL. I will put a couple birds up for us as well....they are out in the meadow by my house almost everyday. Been a mild winter to say the least.

Hey welcome - we have ne more to sign in and then we good - Our Captain JoeA has already scored too!

JW

dog1 - are you or are you not Older than me?

hehe - don't think anyone on our team is into Social Security yet like you and me.....well soon for me!

JW

Whitetail94 has been added to your team.

Just caught up on everything in the forum and its great to be on the board so quickly. Will try and post up a pic from the meadow this morning.

Three weeks from today will be my first chance to be in the woods...I can't wait! Went out scouting again this weekend and saw 8 mature birds, 11 jakes and about 25 hens! Got my blood to pumping!

I hear ya. I put out a couple cameras and drove by a group of toms on my way over on a place we hunt.

Oh...as far as our team name, I couldn't care less. "Team 3" would work for me. "Team Three" would work for me."Fan-glorious Flockrz" would work for me as well.

I say since Joe is stepping up to be the cap'n, he should be the one that gets to choose the name.

Also, if we wanted a really long name, I would be fine with "Team 3: JW, JoeA, Whitetail94, Bible Man, onetohunt, dog1, Ken/WV, Bucktail Bob, BetterBirddogs, 574mag".

That may be a little too long, though.

Team avatar anyone? Feel free to work on one.

Bible-man that name with all of us isted would kill me when I do the team stats :D

And I agree Joe you pick........

JW

Ok deernutz is on team 3

Like the name. Got my name and addy sent to Joe as well. So looks like I'm caught up.

Thanks JoeA, you too!!!

Nice work, Joe! I like "Fan-Glorious Few" more than "Fan-Glorious Flockrz", too. I still think we should have listed all the names just to dig at JW...ok, maybe not.

Fellow few...

What are the dates of the seasons you're hunting this year? It'll help us keep track of our teammates' progress. Hawaii's season ends on March 31. I am hunting central Alabama, west of Montgomery, on April 20-22.

Let me know if you want to use the avatar I whipped up. I'll e-mail it to you.
