A good friend, very good turkey hunter, called me early this morning to report hearing 12 - 13 different birds gobbling from the roost this morning on property he hunts in West Tennessee. The weather has been really nice the past 4-5 days with sunshine and temps in the high 50s-60 so I am not surprised.

Still another 18 days to the opening of the youth weekend, 25 days until the statewide season opens. Don't know how I'm going to be patient enough to endure it!
