Lowryder4u, I'd be interested in meeting up with you. I don't know how much I'll be able to get out this year due to a new addition to the family, but I'd like to try to get together. Let me know.

ok this is what i found today around the house.
I just returned from walk/turkey scoutin. I just about got to were i was gonna ditch the road for a trail. And i heard some rustling in the leaves. i backed up and there they were some turkey. i continued my walk to were i thought i would be safe from them seeing me. Got behind a rock and let some yulps out. Turned out they were 2 hens they got about 30 yards from. i walk back to the road and continued to were i really want to look. When i got to the area i instantly seen droping and scratch mark. at about 100 yards off the road i let out some yelps. Almost right away a gobble rang out about 150-200 yards away. i split the estemated distance and perch myself behind a big rock.After calling for about 15 minutes a nice young bird approached. he only had like a 3 inch beard. He frooze and just looked around then the excitment of crunching leaves made my heart pound.behind him came another bird in full strut.I would have to say his beard was about 5-7 inch nice size. then a third appeared. Not really sure how big his beard was .I never got a clean look. But i must say he was bigger then the other two birds when it came to body. i am sure he was the wiser older one. anyway that what is happening here in my neck of the woods as far as turkeys go...

Lowryder4u,
I tried to pm you. It kept coming back. I didnt recieve your pm yet. I live in Schuylkill county almost at the base of the Blue Mountain. I work in Robesonia. I am really interested! I work until 6:15 in the morning so maybe I could hunt on the way home from work. I am going to be hunting turkeys with the bow and will be filming my hunts. Hope we can work something out.
[email protected] is my email
thanks
Adam
