Default RE: Do you still get pumped?

Let me just say...hell yeah!

However, because of my work schedule and these unbearable warm humid low pressure fronts dominating New England right now, the turkey hunting is rough.

Birds are gobble shy, even those that haven't seen much pressure. I set-up 75 yards from 3 longbeards today, and they only gave me a courtesy gobble---1 each---to let me know where they were. Played soft and seductive, they each flew down a different direction, and none of them wanted to play.

First time in years I haven't punched a tag or two by now, and it's starting to grate on my ego a little Although I have had my chances, just either been inundated with too many eyes or just been too picky on specific hunts on certain properties...

I told the wife I thought about giving up this Spring, because of the skeeters and the heat, and she just says..."yeah, you'll quit when the season is over and you can't hunt anymore..."

I guess she knows me better than I know myself sometimes...
