thanks guys, it has really been an off year. The hens are just now starting to lay eggs so the toms are finally becoming interested. Moved my blind this evening to where the toms made their first stop this morning, there still is 8 toms left in the group so hopefully it all works out. good luck everybody!!!

Got my last tom this evening, I am now tagged out for the season. here is the pics and stats.

Nice birds, Sdhunter!

Man youre lucky, here in MI we're allowed ONE bird per spring. Really sucks. Wish it was at least two.

South dakota has a two tag license for prairie turkey, and i think you can have a few license, plus you can have up to 5 archery tags, so if i guy wanted to go on a slaughter you could lol. But two birds is enough to get me to the fall season lol.

Man colbea, you are on the ball!!! I think we chose the right captain.
