i'll be after them the next 2 weekends(opens next saturday) then we'll be down there for 3 days of fishing.

I stayed out of the woods today---bad forecast and I'm tired of listening to the silence from the gobblers. Maybe when it clears up Monday------. Nobody around here is hearing any gobbling.

I was out from about 3-5. Didn't hear a peep. Didn't call much but couldn't even get hoot up a shock gobble within hearing distance. :boohoo: Thunder didn't either - not that I stayed long after it started :slap:

ours start next month....not real big on it, but I'll go if I get down that way for other things....in my woods there either there or aren't..... but could entice them over from neighbors too no reason to really go till it gets a little closer and drive them off the place either .....but need to start getting wood for next years burn season and splitting it to...... and season over the summer ....I got a bunch of trees down from the storm last year in July ....should be tapping trees too, for maple syrup .....getting kinda late now

Killed a big one one day right before a storm hit. Every time it thundered I gobbled. Did that several times.
Looked over to my right and there he stood at 20 yards! Never made a sound! Last thing he heard was the
Nitro magnum load out of the 1187. Killed a lot of turkeys hunting them like deer. Scout, sit, call, fall asleep
wake up and kill!
