Let’s get it fellas good luck to all

Get em , good luck to all

Present! Feels like a good morning

At the listening spot. Very few gobbles so far, this season.

Good Luck guys!!!!!!

Got a jackleg driving a UTV down by the creek bottom the birds are usually roosted in. Nice start to a beautiful morning.

And they drove in right on me on the WMA. I swear.

Only one bird gobbling and he’s a couple hundred yards across the line. He’s got enough that I think I could kill him if I had time to sit on him for an hour or so. Dang work

Silence!!!

Heard one across the river gobbling his head off. Called up 2 jakes

Not a single gobble but just had 5 deer feed through 15 yards in front of me.

Planned on going this morning, but woke up at 2am with a freaking migraine!! Took some meds and went back to bed. At work now. Bird across the street from my house was hammering when I left for work at 6:00!

Finally hunted my 80 In Marengo county - - worked a jake in - that all I heard - atleast i heard a bird

Other than this jake - I only worked 2 birds that were actually on my property all year - shot one and the other one I called n w his hens and he got away

Every other time I worked one it been off my property across a creek. Hoping to work a mature one on my property before the years out!! Either hunting w buddy r trying prairie n morn

Good luck guys

One gobbled once! Called in 2 Jake’s

Got a gobbler on camera right before fly up time last night,.knew exactly where he was going to roost. Got set up about 80 yards from him this morning, closest I've ever gotten to a turkey before they flew down. He gobbled good on the limb about four or five times at least and acknowledge my light yelps. Man I'm fired up at this point thinking he's going to fly right down to my barrel, but nope the stupid idiot flies down the opposite way of me and jets it down a logging Road. My pride is hurt.

I knew where he was headed and I tried to swing around him and heard him gobbling his full head off and then he must have found his hen and shut up. maybe another day

You couldn’t get a shot?

Lol

Hope you called some of your buddies at DCNR Matt, that really sucks. Can't say I've ever seen a sxs on a wma. That's wild

This fellow played the game oldschool.
Been with him since 7.

He went to 2 strut zones and gobbled his voice out.
But he wasn't coming to me.

Had to give hin the silent treatment for a looong time.
He played a great game and came close to winning several times.

Beautiful bird. Congrats on the hard earned kill

Congrats BOFF! Me and a buddy had two gobbling first thing so we separated and he wound up killing one that came in drumming.

Just take a couple of mine.. I ain’t gonna collect don’t look like

Oh boy could I ?!

I stopped them and had some words. I don’t expect it’ll happen again. I was hotter than iron skillet after driving 49 minutes and walking in to where I was, AND was working a bird too. Guess the idiots heard him gobble from their lease and thought they’d just drive on up to him and say hello. They busted two more flocks of birds as they were driving to me. Drove slap under two long Time roost spots. I was just dumbfounded.

Haha! I had someone walk in on me on the wma a few years ago. Dude was blowing an owl hooter flute the entire way up the mountain. I was sitting 125 yards above a roosted longbeard. Dude walks right up to me. I chewed him up one side and down the other. He finally left and I thought “there is no way this turkey is still here after that ass chewing.” About that time he gobbled again. I wound up calling what was actually two long beards up to 40 yards. AND I MISSED! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Me and the boy got lucky this morning

Congrats crocker

Congrats to the killas!

I went fishing on Lake Martin this morning and heard one just hammering away.

Rub it in why don’t you! Living the dream 😀

I was working down there and heard one too

Same story different day. Got on some gobblers but they just wouldn't play the game the way we needed. Glad to finally be hearing some birds though. Congratulations guys!

Being retired sounds great when you are younger. The problem when it gets here is that you feel so lousy that it's hard to enjoy it. Oh well, have to know that something better awaits.
