This is the Illinois youth season weekend. I had to work this morning, but was able to take my hunter out at about 10 with no luck. We will be in the woods early in the morning, but as I'm typing this the snow is piling up in the yard. Does Mossy Oak make an Obsession Snow pattern??? It was 75 the first half of the week. Now it's like deer season again! Oh well. Guess we will have to put on the Under Armour and sock hats!

Look at the bright side. No ticks and mosquitos to worry about! Over here in Iowa I remember a tom busting us 4th season because I was too busy swatting mosquitos.

Well we bombed this morning. We got in early and had a perfect setup (I thought). I don't think there were any birds in the woods. I don't know what's going on this year. We've been out driving around checking fields that always hold birds, and we're just not seeing any.

Today was a first though for me. First snow-covered turkey hunt! I didn't dress warm enough and my toes and fingers got c c c ccold!

Maybe the birds are on spring break down in Florida or something. I just hope they start showing themselves before April 15th when I get to tote the gun to the woods!
