I lied....couldn't get it done today. Heard a few birds let out one or two quick shock gobbles after we got some owls fired up early, but after a second or two of gobbles they shut up and we never heard em again. Called up a jake off the roost and when he saw my hen and funky chicken jake with bright red head at the edge of the logging road he started putt'n and wouldn't leave. I think this is why the other birds never came around. We sat there til 9 then started walking the roads but never heard or saw anything else. Those gobblers that shock gobbled at the owls sounded like they were all bunched up in one tree, so I still don't think they're ready to split up and start gettin after it. This has been the second slowest season next to last year at my place. It's just plain boring to be honest. If my fields were cut and planted id have a solid plan B on days like today....which have been everyday, but my tractor is out of commission and I ain't had time to fix it to get all that done. I'm gonna hit some other places the next couple of times and see what I end up with. Today was a really nice day to be in the woods though.....great weather.
