Lftw 3/30

Should be a really good morning. Hopefully they are as fired up as they where yesterday.

Yep I hope so. I'm about to leave truck for the long walk in here in the forest. I'm ready, lets do this.

Scott

I’m in, it’s 45 degrees here perfect morning

At my listening spot. Just heard my first gobble of the season.

Headed in, hoping to at least hear some gobbling. Bren dead around my place

At 0530 first gobbling. And another one about 100 yards from me sounded off 10 minutes ago.

Good luck guys

Nothing here yet this morning. Beautiful morning ought to be some pictures hit the thread today. Good luck fellas

Ran out to a new piece of public ground before work this morning. Not a peep

You in the forest

Beautiful morning, jealous of you fellas hunting! Good luck guys, should see some ugly mugs and dead turkey pics today!

Turkey be gobbling in NW corner good luck guys

I got #3!!! I’ve been on one since daylight and finally caught up to him at 8:10.Gonna have to tell the story on this one after I get home.

Congrats guys! Walked out to go to work and sure wished I was in the woods. Love mornings like this. Can't wait for story Southwood!

Yes. Had one gobbling his head off before daylight. Got a glimpse of him at 50 yards moving between two trees. He was moving away for awhile and I caught up to him and had him come in. Thought I had him but he hung up behind a thick patch of bay trees. Never would come out. Bumped him again about 10 mins. ago and he flew off. I broke the first rule of turkey hunting. Had another hunter calling about 150 yds. out so I'm leaving.

Got in beautiful bottom in dark - bird was 225 yards across line and gobbling in dark - gobbled good on limb them flew down to his hens that did not talk to me a bunch - also saw another hen and what I think was gobbler in tree about 70 yards across line and he was not the one gobbling - I was 30 yards from line and kind of out of game but it was fun hunt

Was still at work at 8

Good luck guys - awesome morning to go

Waiting on a pic Southwood - congrats

I bet it was a pretty morning in the woods! Congrats to the killas

I'm at maddox. Had 3 gobbling but nothing. Tried circling them but......

Congrats southwood

Where I left off yesterday, when I snuck out with 2 birds gobbling and coming in after I shot.
First gobble I heard today was 6:00. It was bright and highly visible with the moon.

This one had hens with him, and 2 of his brothers. Had to get aggressive with the calling to break them from the hens. Once I did that, they all gobbled at every call, and got hot and heated, closing the distance quickly.

Shot the stutter, and waited 30 minutes for the 2 brothers to leave. They were dedicated to staying with the dead.

It was 7:53 before pulling the trigger.









God Bless,
David B.

Congrats

Southwood clearly did some good pre season scouting, congrats killers

Congrats to the killas probably my last sit of the year. Not a peep of anything on the limb last two days. Got on a bird at 12 yesterday he started gobbling bout 400 yards down a road from me. I closed in to bout 150 yards set up a few soft yelps and he answered I waited 5 minutes throwed some more at him he answered real close. I was set up just around a slight curve. Waited for him to step around. Then my heart sank I could hear him walking right behind me then a spit and drum then another. If I had to guess I’m gonna say 7 steps and as quick as he showed up he was gone never laid eyes on him.

good job!

Dr. B

congrats guys!

Congrats fellas! Y’all killing me with these pictures and I’m working

Hunted till 11. Only one gobble at 7:30. Called in some hens. Back to work for a few days.

Congrats killers

Hate it when they do that doeslayer - drives me nuts when I can’t see them and they are just right behind me then they leave and u never see them and they were probably close enough to spit on them

Congratulations on the kills

Congrats on kills, hunted till 10 not a peep, getting a little frustrated

I hunted till 10 this morning and they were gobbling like crazy. Everything that could go wrong did no matter what I tried. Still had a blast though

Was up at the farm shop doing some work a bit ago. This dude was showing out for the ladies.

#2 down for the count. 19.6 lbs 11 inch beard right 1 1/16 left 1 inch. Was a long sit today after not hearing anything this morning I decided to try another spot made my way around to it around 9 this morning. Set up gave out a series of yelps had a hen to talk back. We exchanged conversations for a little while and she finally went silent. I decided to jus set it out and wait. 2 hours later I see the hens easing towards me and had him on a leash. 30 yards 410 9.5’s tss

Congrats doeslayer - nice bird

How far is that pic 257? Nice pic

They were about 150 yds from the shop. I laid binos on the bed rail of truck and tool pic thru them

Nice

Congrats on the Kills yall
