Nice story blackheel! I know any time the turkeys are around you it is extremely hard to change your location on them.. Even when a group moves off.. That other tom spots you and you are done with.. My last 2 years of hunting up here the toms gave me the silent treat on each bird that I shot even on a miss last year the same thing silent.. Not 1 frigging peep out of those toms.. The jake would gobble no matter what it appeared but not those toms.. Anyways nice story and a nice bird!! congrats again..

Real nice story on bird #2 as well.. Sometimes you just never know what they are going to do!! I know from my scouting our bird numbers are down a lot as well. But, there is still some birds around and I am going to give it my best.. Congrats again blackheel..

Well I will be back at them again in the morning. It will be a picture perfect morning, sunny, cool, no wind. Hopefully the birds will be fired up in the morning. Can't wait to experience Gods creation in the morning!

3 of them have not made any reports in quite some time.. Bigc870, Southernstrut56, and Talondale.. Also we came in this contest with 2 members missing and 2 assigned but never showed.. So with what we have left we are really laying the smack down.. Now if I can nail a bird or 2 it will help.. But unless I get one of those giant hardly ever heard tell of birds I am afraid we may not get the win.. But, it is not over yet and any of you that are hunting may end up upgrading a score or 2 and I could nail a nice bird.. So it is still far from over!! I know we can still win this thing!! But, it will be a battle right to the end.. I also never saw team 2 scores until I went back and looked.. We are now in 3rd place guys.. So hopefully a no report may get one?? Who knows..

We are currently 123 points behind the first place team.. So it will be a very hard win for us to get unless some member we have not heard from happens to get a bird.. Good luck guys we still have a chance at it none the less!!

I received nothing from them.. No idea as to why? Maybe they have been quite busy or something? So I am hoping one of these guys will pop in with some good news for us.. But, as well all know from last year anything can still happen.. I do know where i saw a big tom back last week one day.. I have not seen him again but have seen 2 hens in there last night just before dark. So I believe he is still in there.. I will be trying for him early on Monday morning..
