Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Is it April 1 yet?

Default Is it April 1 yet?

Watching 5 turkeys feed in one of my fields. Everyone has a beard over 12". Three look like they have 2-3 beards. Pure monsters.

April 1? You lucky dog. How long is your season? Ours is only April 23 to May 20... and in my County we dont even have a fall season.

Removed my cams but just put them back up today. I have been trying to find out where the are coming out of the woods but they all just scatter once i get remotely close. I set up 2 cameras so hopefully will catch them. Went looking for some shelled corn to put out in front of each camera but no luck. Was so tempted to just bust one with my .270 and claim self defense they were that big.

OK found a pic that is pretty close to describing how big they were...
