RE: I got my first today..
Is that the only bird you have scouted? If not move in on another one which you believe may not have been pressured.
If there are hesn were you shot the first bird where will be gobblers there shorty to fill in for his abstance.
If you don't have a clue where there is another huntable gobbler....go to high points at sunrise and sunset and listen..they will tell you where they are at.

Chuck, if I heard other gobblers, I would go right back without hesitation. Is that your first ever, or are you talking about this year? Either way, nice bird and congrats. Now go back and get another.

1st ever ..It's my 2nd year hunting them...I called on ein last year but I wasn't ready..this year my gun was up and i was well hidden.I heard 2 more different gobblers.It's public property..so you have to stop hunting at 1:00 PM..
I'll be back tomorrow morning thanks for the advice.

Congrats Chuck! My 11 yr old scored his 1st bird this morning also. Will post story and pic tommorrow! I noticed you didn't mention which WMA! SMART MAN, lets keep it to ourselves, 60 miles, isn't Green Swamp, but I have a pretty good idea! LOL Beats pay $1000-$2500 like some yankees we know!no offense to our northern friends! I brought a buddy I met on here from NC that had been paying that kind of money and he scored on a WMA. Said he saw and heard more birds than with the guided hunts...... Great 1st bird man, go right back to the same spot, cuz chances are they will be thru there again tommorrow!
