Big Country did you hunt public land? I hunted in west OK this year and had a little sucess. I'm lookin for something closer to MO.I would like to find some private land with a small trespass fee. If anyone could help I would apprecate it.

Thanks for the info. Sorry I didnt respond sooner. Ive been tied up with jury duty for a few weeks now so Ive had to cut my turkey season short. We had set up down that way right along the fence, but we didnt have any luck. Congrats to your brother! We went out to Black Kettle on sunday. There are great toms everywhere. If there is anyone on here that is birdless for the season head out that way. You wont be dissapointed. We could have took a great bird, but we were trying to get a double, but the other bird would never come in close enough. Next year that is where I will be hunting

I bagged 1 in SW OK on private land. 9 1/4" beard, 7/8" spurs, 18 lbs. Average bird for the area. I took a friend the following weekend and he got 2 jakes. It has been tough hunting with all the changing weather. Good Luck and watch for the rattlers.

Speaking of snakes. I almost had a bull snake climb into my lap while I was working 2 toms. He got about 3 feet from getting into my lap before I noticed him. I could have swore I scarred off the birds when I screamed like a girl, but thankfully they didnt hear me. Although I did have to leave my calls under that tree for a few hours because the snake climbed up in it and wouldnt leave

Well this is only like my second post on the forums. Davs2601 finally got me to join. I can vouch for the snake in his lap at black kettle. He was sitting beside me. Gave us a pretty good laugh after we picked up our hearts and put them back in our chest. Seeing as this was the first time I have ever tried turkey hunting we had a blast learning this season. Yep we did get too greedy and try for a double and lost em both..but it won't happen again that is for sure.

I got 2 nice toms in Southeast Oklahoma. It was a tough season though.

Hmm.. haven't been down in the SE part of the state yet. Did you hunt on public land? and gratz on the 2 toms.

This was the first year I hunted private land down there. Usually we hunt public land that's just as good.
