baldeagle, interesting thought on ground temperature. Sounds like it would make sense to me. And hopefully junkie is right about it only being a matter of time for me. I've been in a big slump the past couple of years, looking to break out real soon. I keep waiting for that perfect morning where it all falls into place and everything works out as planned.........but we all know turkey hunts never end up as planned. I heard north Alabama got some good snow this past weekend. If it starts warming up next week, April might just be the hottest month of turkey hunting we've had in a while down here. Hopefully I'll get to take advantage of it enough days to lay us down a couple longbeards. Good luck to everybody hitting the woods in the coming weeks!
