Yeah Ray I'm really blessed. I've enjoyed many seasons full of excitement and plenty of gobbling, I love that place. The birds are still as hard to kill as any others in the state, if not harder in my opinion because of the competition from guys hunting around me. I got one guy that hunts the property to my east that's quite possibly the best turkey caller and hunter in the state. And another guy that hunts anywhere he pleases and is the smoothest poacher on earth. Got people across the river that also do anything they want, plus another guy across the river who kills the heck outta some turkeys. All in all this whole area, my land and the surrounding properties, has some pretty dadgum good turkey hunters putting the pressure on em all season long.
I saw the comment where you said you make calls also....? Box, slate, mouth calls? I'm relatively new at making mouth calls, but I've caught on quickly and got some good sounding stuff. Still got a lot to learn I'm sure, but I have a few calls I recently made that will be with me for a long time.
