Prolly I do not really know though..2 years ago I got myself a big goose egg and last year the second week I shot my first spring bird and then around 2 or 3 days left of our season I shot a jake. We had a lot of rain last year and this year has been quite wet as well. Just 2 nights ago we had almost 2 inches of it. I am thinking this helps to keep them breeding longer with some hens prolly having another cluck if the first clutch failed.. I do not know though if that is the case or not. Last year they gobbled like crazy and this year there has been hardly any gobbleling going on according to those out still hunting.

We're open in Kansas until May 31. Went out for my first ever hunt this weekend. Saw 5 hens and one jake, but the shot wasn't good enough on the jake to risk. So, we'll be heading out again this weekend to see if we can bag that tom that was flirting with us from the treeline.
