Graph of some info I thought interesting so I spreadsheeted it  ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/nTrzuBq.jpg) I went back and looked at the avid hunter survey info I submitted and collected my info. I was interested in the fact that I am having a lot of mornings I don't hear a bird. I have been hearing similar reports. Bear in mind I go a lot of mornings but if they are not gobbling I am leaving. I would rather not kill one if they aren't gobbling and I would rather hunt a lot of mornings than a lot of hours. Data is from 2015 to 2022 Percent 0 mornings by week is simply whether I heard a turkey or not on any given morning and is summarized (generally) by week.Bottom line, I have a LOT more blank mornings early than later in the season. Number of gobblers heard by week is summarized the same - entered by day but summarized by week. Bottom line, Not a huge amount of variance by week but the 4th week is best. Kills by week shows I kill a lot more birds later in the season. Week 5 is best and week 7 typically does not have many days. I apparently don't kill much early  percent 0 mornings by year is obvious and seems like there are a LOT more 0 mornings this year - last 2 years I heard birds most mornings. number of gobblers per morning by year is interesting and shows a definite trend down as in I am hearing less and less gobblers per morning now than in 2015 Similar to sharp spurs and full fans, 2015 was a good year but made for an unfair comparison to following years.
I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine

Very interesting observations, Ours start out hot early and become more quiet by mid April.
Well, the way I see it is there's just too many assholes On a good day there's a bunch of assholes in here. On a bad day there's too many assholes in here.

I spent 4 days at the camp last week. Perfect weather every morning. Did not hear a single gobble. Saw 1 hen as I was driving to the camp and only saw a couple hen tracks on our roads. I’m thinking I stand a better chance to kill a gobbler down here in the marsh then our place in Monroe County.
It's hard to kiss the lips at night that chews your a$$ all day long.
