Turkey wizards sound good to me. Great thing you do JW with the state programs and I wish you well on the Make a Wish event. Keep us posted.

JW Arrowmaster

I vote for RPD63 for Captain and Turkey Wizards as a team name

Sounds good to me.

I don’t mind being captain unless someone else wanted it. Looking forward to a good year.

RPD63 for Captain

Arrowmaster for Wizzard

I'm petfectly happy being an Underling.

Drew my second IL turkey permit. Hunting private property in Madison County, IL. Six day season. IL sure does not make it easy for turkey hunters. They have to expect the permit to be filled. So, theoretically that turkey will be shot thus reducing the population. I don't understand why they limit hunters to one fifth (approx.) of a 30+ day season. Maybe to lower success rates thus not expecting all tags to be filled. Now that I type this, it is likely a money grab.

Typical IL reasoning << We can issue more permits and collect more fees if we decrease the success rate by limiting the hunters ability to harvest a bird. >>

Landowners get the full turkey season to fill a tag which sure takes a lot of pressure off the hunter. One free permit too. I sold my ground which sucks for me.

This is IL. So, nothing political/regulatory surprises me unless it is beneficial for the citizen.

I don't believe in jinx. Count me in for at least one gobbler. Ha ha!

April 16th opening day for me.

Still waiting on three to check in. Western MA Hunter will be around soon but don’t know the other two.

I see another guy wants in Arrowmaster. We could use a 10th member on our team.

Checking in and glad to be part of the winning team ! Gonna put an arrow in one at lake benbrook this year I'm one of 18 hunters blessed with the opportunity to bow hunt turkey this spring ! Good luck guys
