Good luck to everyone venturing after the elusive wild turkey tomorrow. Above all be extremely careful. The woods also harbor some jackasses.

Haven’t really checked into it. I think it would be tempting but illegal.

I heard ZERO birds gobbling from the roost this morning. Had one bird respond at 8:30 but he was WAY off and on land I don't have permission to hunt. I suspect it had something to do with the cloudy and breezy weather. Rain tomorrow but Wednesday has promise!

I saw 2 big toms yesterday at about 35-40 yards with a hen keeping them occupied and I missed a big one at 20 yards this morning at 7:00.

Congrats on the turkey Ron!
No shots for me yet. I have trailcam pics of turkeys near my blinds, but they are always there in the evenings. May have to move them again.
Good luck folks.

Glad to see you're making up for lost time, Ron.
Congratulations on the bird. They've got to be the toughest critter on the planet to collect with a bow.

I went out with my neighbor this morning and expected to hear lots of gobbling...cool, sunny, perfect. Didn't hear anything on the roost. First gooble was at 8:00. Very different from last year.

It is dangerous out there guys. Even owning your own land you never know who is on it. Be careful

The brothers were 7 and 20 years old, mistaken for a turkey in some brush. Shot by a family friend they knew who happened to be hunting in the same area. Who can't tell the difference between a man and a turkey?
