Hey Timbrhuntr,

What area of Ga. will you be hunting? I'm 70 miles south of Macon (Wilcox county). For 4 or 5 days they were gobbling in every direction, since the bad weather this past week they have really slowed down. Only hearing one or 2 birds a day and far away.

I've been dogging one for the past 3 days and I'm beat. I made up my mine to follow him this morning and he's leaving our area and going onto the next property then goes quiet. The owners of that land don't hunt turkeys, just wild hogs and they have about 20 feeders out, and from what I can tell, that's when the bird quits gobbling, when he gets to a feeder on the property line. I've tried every trick I know and can't turn him, so now I'm going try to catch him when he comes back late to roost.

The weather down here is hot, it was 93 degrees at noon, right now it's 88. Becareful, on my way out of our property I killed a diamondback rattle snake, 64 inches, 10 rattlers and a button. Hope you have snake boots.

Good luck,
dog1
