At the club giving it a go. No luck yesterday.

Good deal tailwalk! We’ve got two so far then. Jcap03 has been posting in the team 2 thread so I guess he’s decided to stick it out with them. I guess that puts us short a man?

I knocked one down yesterday and it got up and ran off.

Killed one this morning. I’m still at camp so it will be a few days before I fool with much on here. My son got his first solo bird yesterday.

MTeague. Hunting Lauderdale County, maybe Freedom Hills in Colbert. My team name suggestion is based on the times. "Rona Evaders" since we are all self quarantining in the woods away from Rona for a least a few hours at a time. Best I could come up with. Take it or leave it guys.

Congrats Brandon and everyone else who has connected already. I was close to sealing the deal on Wednesday at the club in Marion County. He came in to around 60 yards and either seen me or knew something wasn't right. I went today and only seen two hens and never heard the first gobble. I'll be back after em Sunday.

If anyone would like to team up for a public land hunt....let me know. My schedule is pretty flexible. Good luck guys.

Good luck fellas. I watched my fiancé miss one not long after flydown, then I called another one into the same spot 30 minutes later and killed my second of the season, and got to watch my buddy kill his first later that afternoon too! You don’t get many days like that in the turkey woods and I am beyond thankful.

Just heard one yesterday. Went the opposite way off the roost with his hens. Did the same thing this morning. Heard only one other so far but he was 1/2 mile at least on some other private.

Well my streak continues. Left the area we have been hunting and went in blind to a completely different area today. Nothing on roost but had 2 birds fire up a little later in the morning. After a lot of time in the game we ended up pulling off a double. What a start to the season, I am so thankful. So I’ve got my 3 already, now hunting for upgrades!

Congrats to those who have connected so far. I’m after em this morning at the club in Marion County. I’ve heard 6 or 7 different birds already and one out on a cutover at around 150 yards and couldn’t ever get him to come in. He never did gobble. I’m guessing he was just sitting and waiting on a hen to come thru because that’s what ended up happening. I’m now in search for one of the. It’s that was gobbling early. Good luck to those in the woods today.

Saturday and Sunday only heard one both mornings, same bird roosted in the same spot on the property line with his hens. He went to the neighbors both mornings no luck pulling him back. Had business Monday morning and deer hunted them from 12-2 until the rain started. Rain Tuesday.

Now yesterday and today they were on fire. 5 birds yesterday and 4 this morning. Nearly 100 gobbles both mornings but still henned up bad. About normal start to the season for me. Things generally don't improve until the end of the 2nd week in April. Thought it might be different this year with the early warmth and green up. Not so far but at least I'm used to it.

Back at it again tomorrow through Sunday. Still working so usually call it around 9:30 on weekdays.

Counted 80 gobbles from 5 birds this morning. All but one were well off my property. The one on my place was not in the mood at all he gobbled about 10 times all morning and didn't respond once. Hopefully he'll be in the mood tomorrow or Sunday. Rain first of next week and fairly heavy work week.

I killed one a week or so ago and have a couple more opportunities but they stayed just a little out of range. I also called one in the other afternoon for my oldest. He took took out two trees instead of the bird 😁. That bird didn’t gobble until 6:45 that afternoon and I called him in from around 500 yards out. He didn’t shoot until 7:15. I was really surprised that he even got a shot with it being that late in the day. Then two days ago, I called two different birds in for him and he never shot (said he thought they were to far (one way 30 yards and the other came in to 35 yards) were back at em again today and haven’t heard the first bird. Maybe it’s the weather that has got them tight lipped.


I had much rather be tried by twelve than carried to my grave by six!!!!

I had one bust me last week at 15 yards and then missed a different one the next day. Since then it has been dead for me, the mid season lull is here.

Keep after it, done the same thing myself. Still trying here.


Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

Hey guys...I’m still after em. It’s getting tough here in Marion County. The birds have gotten a case of the tight lip the past week or so. I’ve heard two different birds this morning and both went silent when they hit the ground.

Yeah it’s been slow for me too last week. Can I text someone the pictures of my two birds to post them for me on the scoring page. Not sure how to post pictures

Been a tough season. Henned up just about every morning. One morning last week heard 342 gobbles. Heard 4 gobbles this morning, only one was close glad i didn't chase after him otherwise would have blown it.

This one I got I saw twice before. About a week ago he pitched off the roost away from me and kept moving off my property. About 2 weeks ago he snuck up on me and busted me listening. He didn't like to gobble on the roost and he didn't this morning. Was roosted with 5+ hens. 2 hens pitched out away from me and I gave a couple soft yelps after each pitched down. Another hen pitched away as well and I clucked and purred. Within a minute or two I head a little flapping and a thud. He hit the ground 40 yds away, did a partial strut and drummed a bit. Had to wait for him to go behind a tree and get the gun up. Dropped him like a stone at 30 yds.

First kill with TSS and the new 20 ga Yildiz Youth O/U.

Got 3 days left up here and couple birds still around, so maybe I can up my score. Lack of spurs hurts that score but I am happy as a clam to get him.

Congratulations. I should still get to hunt a few more days in other states. I finished up today here at home. Managed to get a few myself. I will post mine up before it’s over with. Hope to get some upgrades.
Mostly encounter 2 year olds this year. But it’s been great.

Well at least I put the one up on the board. Other years I've participated I didn't score at all. 27 hunts approx 1900 gobbles; I participate in the state avid turkey survey so I count gobbles every hunt. Spent 75% of my hunts on my lease which will be my place in a couple weeks when we close on the purchase. Glad we pulled the trigger on purchasing this place, been leasing it for nearly 30 years. It is a hell of a turkey property for only 120 acres. Usually at least one 4-5 yo buck each year too.

Time for the post season hangover. Though, I'm tempted to try and hunt TN this weekend but never been up there and I've got a ton of projects that got put off while I hunted last month. Start prepping for deer season next weekend; that will ease my mind.

Good luck guys still hunting in other states.

Got one in Kentucky this week. Not sure if I will get any or many more days in the spring woods.
