Gobbling Buck

I've got a buddy that has already seen a couple toms strutting in a hay field. Seems kinda' early for central Alabama.......maybe the boys are going to be fired up this year.

I just hope their stamina is good and not just good out the gate.

How warms it been down there. I see strutters in March here in Indiana. Were about a month behind Alabama. Could be possible...

Things way out west of west are looking like early action this spring too. Toms are starting to posture a little in open fields.

We live in a area where we see turkeys everyday of the year and have seen them strutting in the middle of the winter . Its not just when breeding season is on that they will strut .

Hard to see turkeys strutting in 40,000 acres of hard woods... So I wont be seeing that for at least 2 month

Turkeys are weird like this sometimes

I remember a few years ago I was on the way to play golf with a buddy of mine in south-central Tennessee. It was July. I am always looking around for critters when driving in rural areas and on this day I saw a group of hens out in a small field with a strutting gobbler about 150 yards from the road. I didn't believe my eyes so I turned arouned and went back to verify - there he was, strutting his crazy butt off following those hens around that field. IN JULY - In Tennessee - and it was HOT.

Turkeys do really crazy things sometimes.

I saw three Toms yesterday going at it a bit......jumping around and trying to spur each other and the field was snow covered.
