Well good luck with it, bud.

I look forward to turkey season every year. Hearing those birds sound off in the early morning is an adrenaline rush.

RE: Team Beard Busters [5]

RE: Team Beard Busters [5]
 

Not out huntin hard yet,working hard so I can stay out there a few days when it opens. Ready to bust some beards. The way the weather's been I think our season will peak the first week here.

RE: Team Beard Busters [5]
 

I am not out yet either.....I wont be around to much for the next week.....

My mother is going in for open heart surgery for a gentic heart disease we have so we are doing all the prep stuff this week, April 2 is the surgery and so i will be at the hospital for most of that week....

But she told me tonight that she wants a wild turkey deep fried for hersuccess party at the end of april!!!!
She actually drew a tag this year before the docs said it was time for the surgery.

IT has actually become routine....My little bro, grandpa, older bro, now mom, with in 5 years me and my twin bro......Then we are done!!!!

Well

Good luck beard busters.......I have three tags and three chances.....and a mom who wants a bird!

I'll be hunting Manchester State Forest on Saturday &have reservations to hunt theBombing range with My Son on Sunday. The Flocks are breaking up now so I'll concentrate on hardwood bottoms & strutting areas.
Pines, Hope your Mom's surgery is a success. while I'm in the woods this weekend I'll say a prayer; I feel alot closer toGod when I'm there.

That is why it is nice to have a blind, you really don't get wet. Turkeys will still be out in the rain.
