Turkey check is just like deer check. Absolutely worthless data for any kind of statistical analysis, which is the only reason to inconvenience the hunting public to collect such data. Ever heard the old adage, "garbage in equals garbage out"? I was bass fishing this past Saturday morning in Covington County and I heard several birds stretching their vocal chords around the lake I was on. I'll also mention that heard 3 separate shots on surrounding properties between 7:20 and 11:00. Lucky me. There were 2 recorded kills in Covington all weekend according to Chuckie check. I guess it just so happens that I must have heard the only two shots in the entire county that killed and the third "youth hunter" (yeah right) must have just missed because you know that if he would have killed, they'd have checked the bird for sure (wink wink).

Here's what I'm really laughing at. Between Clarke, Wilcox, Dallas, Lowndes, Monroe, Washington, Choctaw counties, there were a total of 24 birds recorded as being killed. That's a joke. Almost half, (3) of the 7 youth kills in Wilcox were killed (and recorded on Chuckie Check) off my place ((1) nephew's first and a miss) or my adjoining neighbors (2). The numbers are so far from accurate on both deer and turkey that I honestly get sick of seeing the state post this BS.

I brought this up a while back as with everything it’s political. Politician from Clarke County wants a fall season, he gets it. We want to hunt on the 15th, yeah rite.

Another useless thread started by the new found turkey expert

Over the last two seasons Washington Co has had the 11th lowest gobbler production .....behind counties like Marshall and Dekalb

The plus side of that one thread is first bird I shoot this year is gonna be with a drip torch. Kill ‘em and grill ‘em, 1 shot.

0 in Madison lol.

Yeah that’s a no

I can personally attest to that being total bullchit. CNC I appreciate your thoughts and effort but please go back to the deer/throw and mow thread

That list - is 60 out of 67 counties - without Clarke county. That means. Those stats - are garbage. Treat it as such.

Good catch!!!......I knew I was missing one......Clarke should be 40th right after Monroe.

Two top 15 counties, one easy top 10.

Why aren’t there more turkeys being killed then??.....Why are many of the southern counties toward the bottom of the list?

I can tell you why Monroe is at the bottom. Very few turkeys left in the southern part of the County.

Because the list is pure garbage. Wilcox County at 42 and Clarke at 40.

He’s not getting it. That list answers another question - areas are using GC at different percentages guaranteed. Clarke county is one of the largest land area counties, lowest people populated, and well managed timberland with no pockets void of turkey. But I guess hunters are just taking phone videos and playing catch and release.

Because this is all made up BS. I just love the charts you come up with.

I’m not saying they are gamechecking the birds, but Washington, Clarke, and Wilcox being that far down that list is a joke.
