I can tell you for a fact the turkey hunting in conecuh county is nothing compared to what it was 10 years ago. My turkey hunting buddy for years is a wildlife biologist and a rabid turkey hunter. When the land owners started cutting all the big timber off our place he got out. The days of standing on the camp house porch and trying to decided which gobbler you wanted go after are over. After hurricane Ivan our place was clearcut poisoned and planted in pines and now you are hard pressed to hear a gobble on a beautiful spring morning. Three years ago I got to work and kill one bird. Two years ago I didn't get to work a bird all season. This spring I got to work and kill one bird. So I agree with the survey.
