RE: IL Turkeys

I guess no one on here turkey hunts. I am coming up this week to give it a shot.

Leaving tommorow for the Shawnee Nat. Forrest, I too am a little suprised at the lack of response to the post.

RE: IL Turkeys

I killed 1 first season and 1 fifth season. Called one in for my wife first season. All kinds of turkey pics and video on my club site. Didnt get the first 1 on video. Batt on cam went dead about 2 minutes before I shot it.
