i hunted for 3 years before i got one, finally my 4th year i did.......the first 2 years i didn' t see a turkey 99% of the time, no gobblers , that is for sure.....finally that time came when it was my turn.....and all those birdless days didn' t sem to matter anymore.....
last year , i had my sister call me in a monster, then the next day i called in one for her, then the following weekend i got my limit.....neither one of us saw any after that....my season was over,sucked.... this year i hunted 13 days without a shot, saw plenty of turkey , but the day before my last hunt , i got him.....it would of sucked butt if i hadn' t , but i know that i got to see more before this last bird was taken , more than most hunters and i do feel blessed, extra blessed with the bird, but none the less blessed......i was starting to stress over it, finally i took the advice of a friend and i relaxed.....had two hunters walk up on me, i laughed it off, instead of getting upset...i walked out with a bird that day.....might be something to think about
good luck......
i felt like giving up bigtime....everyone was getting birds but me and i know i hunted 3 or 4 days a week , every week of the season.....every season..........
