I've gone into last week prep for our opener. In areas I know theres birds I am not hearing any gobbling at daybreak. I'm not totally worried since I've seen them and know they aren't moving too far off. Its just so much more fun when there sounding off. Its eerily similar to about 4 yrs ago same thing no gobbles but birds cooperated on the opener coming in silent. Anybody else having similar situation our are your birds talkin?

25 miles south of albany, can't shut em up!

but, the black flies arrived today![:'(]

good luck!

They've been gobbling hard since the last week of March in the 3 areas i hunt both in Greene and Columbia counties.

Gobblin' non-stop way up north. About 2 hrs north of Albany

They've been gobbling around the Watertown area. I think the state should look into opening up a a couple weeks earlier down state (southern zone) b/c it does warm up a little earlier down there compared to up north. Maybe some comments by hunters after this season would help. What does anyone else think?

they are not gobbling forme either, i have been out every weekend this month so far and hevent heard anything.... i dont know what the problem is, but they have been to the place where i hunt to, i have seen them before

oh man they were gobblin for me for sure yesterday morning. we had at least 10 where i was sitting. saw 7. lets just say i tagged out by 530
