Time you killed your turkey
Wisconsin
Contributors to this thread:
Curious what time of day everyone killed their turkey. So please post just the time, and then the date of your kill. Please include all kills, bow, gun, etc... but don't tell us which it is. This survey is about timing, not weapon. Many of us may be surprised by the results. I will start another topic for the discussion about time of kill, put any comments or observations in that thread.
I should have included a link to the discussion thread for this topic, here it is.

My Turkey season is officially over.. All the birds taken on public land.,
Largest bird weighed 27.2 pounds Longest beard/ 11.5 Biggest Spurs/ 1.5 Longest bird.. 48.75" What's interesting is my second half of the season all the kills came in the evening. One thing I learned is I will never use decoys again. They just do more harm then good on public lands. That's my .02 cents

How are some people getting multiple tags for 1st and 2nd season?
so are you shooting your friends and families birds too?
It's called being part of someone else's hunt! Are you internet police?

Understood from first post right away, nocturnal! Some just like to take jabs. Most of my turkey hunting is now “assisting” without weapon in hand. I haven’t clocked in the kills this year, however know that one was lunchtime hour and others were within 1st hour of sunrise and encounters have been very much the same. (I don’t typically hunt afternoons or bedtime as I just need to harness myself and bedtime hunts just screw up stuff for the am

You didn't say this year only so I have gotten 3, haven't hunted turkey for years. All were the fifth week and all were from 9-11AM. Don't have exact dates or times. Incidentally, all came in with another tom.
