Turkey Diary!
Dont know how many of you all keep a hunting journal but believe me when I say its a great idea!Besides recounting stories and past hunts (which brings a smile to anyones face)it brings back to memory what worked and didnt in that general location you hunted on those particular birds.I make a concentrated effort to list the location,# of birds,time of year,how hot they were,and what calls brought the most response!Not only does it help in your own general area you live but throughout the U.S. if you hunt out of state.I see a # of posts here lately of fellas who are seeing turks and most of the guys that are deer hunting are running into turkeys too,I suggest writing it in your journal because this is how new areas are found to hunt.Although the birds pattern changes in many cases from fall to spring I still have returned to an area that I saw birds in during deer season to find them there in the spring.Keep a journal not only can it help but its fun too,especially 10 or 15 years down the road when you are able to read and feel the excitement of a past hunt!!!BOB<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
