Well guys i went out at 5 yesterday and setup. It started raining pretty good so the birds were pinned down for a while. I only heard 2 gobbles all day, right before the rain started. I sat it out untill 9 when it stopped raining. I moved to the other side of the valley where i had good luck calling last year. I went Very aggressive in my calling style and i didnt hear anything, nothing, i wasnt prepared for the birds to come in the way they did and they spotted me moving twards them. Two toms came in from the brush right infront of me and i was pointed at the road. They didnt talk, just came to look i guess. sorry guys. I'll be in michigan next weekend but i'll have the weekend after that to goout. good luck!!

I took afriend and his 8 year old son with me on Saturday. My friend bagged 2 jakes. I was glad to be a part of that special time between a father and son. We are expecting our first child in about a month. I can't wait till she's old enough to take hunting.

sounded like you had a blastokgobbler, and an early congrats on the child.

It's finely here. My first of two turkey weeks. I will be hunting MN first, it starts on Thursday but i can'tmake it out til Friday evening. Hopefully it will all end with a bloody arrow and a nice long beard. Then i will leave on tuesday morning sometime to go to WI for the start of that season on Wednesday. My buddy and his wife had this last week and the week before that, and they both got nice birds. But as it always seems to happen when i go it is aways tough going. Someday i hope that my luck will change for the better.

Hey good luck - come on team let's all root for him!

It's not looking good for my MN hunt. Was out Friday and today, and there is absolutely nothing for turkey sign anywhere, no gobbles, no scratchings and no turkeys in any of the fields when driving around. Had about 200 acres, 100 in each of two spots that are about 3 miles apart. I can't even blame the crappy weather because there just isn't any sign that they are even there.
Well hopefully my luck will change in WI.

Boys, these turkeys are really giving me the run around this year. So much so that I didn't even go out on either of my days off this week.

As late as it is, the still seem to be henned up pretty bad. I've got three consecutive days off next week, so I'll hit it hard then and see if I can't pull a W out of the air with my bow.

Well hand in thar Dan & TT - I am about to leave for two weeks and form what I have read and those that I have talked the stories you present are antion wide in the north!

I am hoping things will bust loose and I get into the 2nd peak of gobbling - hope it ain't over!

Leave May 8th
