norsemen I' m new to this Turkey hunting fever and I was wondering why you say they would have been doomed? I have read that they can fly in about 6 to 8 weeks, and this is just the middle of july. I understand winter may come early way up north but from his name and where it say' s he' s from northern missour I would think they would have time to grow into nice size poults before bad winter would set in.

Don' t get mad at me for asking because as I said I' m new to this Turkey hunting fever, and I' m still learning all I can, but was wondering what your answer was founded on.
