Well guys I went out this morning nice and early.. I had them gobbling from different areas.. I am guessing around 4 birds but, really have no way of knowing how many for sure.. They gobbled for around 2 1/2 hours with me calling once every 20 minutes.. They just would not come in for me.. I have Thursday, Friday, and Saturday to try and get it done in.. I will try to sneak half way in on them Friday if they do not come out and play.. I may try to Thursday as I am getting frustrated with them not showing up ..

After I left there I went to rinse my truck off to get rid of all the mud from yesterday. On my way home a hen comes running out and starts flying.. I locked the brakes up hoping to avoid her. Crash right into the molding going around my grill and busted some of it.. She when sliding out into the other lane.. I stopped the truck with feathers still flying and tossed her out of the road.. Then once I got home I called our game warden who told me to go back and get her if I wanted it.. So now I have another turkey completely unplanned on.. I tried to avoid it but there was nothing I could do about it.. I feel bad about it because in my mind she has a nest nearby and would rather have her hatch her eggs.. But, at least she will not go to waste any ways..

I also doubt it would count even though it is a legal bird.. Weapon was a pick-up truck at 8 lbs..


The hunting camp I went to look at I will be buying it!! It is on a 1 acre lot in what is to me a great location! My wife went with me and feels the same way I do. So I am planning on owning it in around 2 weeks time!! I was hoping to see some wildlife on the way up there.. We did see a big doe and that was it.. No turkeys not even a hen out there.. Now my wife knows that the turkeys are hard to come by this year..
