Am I the only one hunting today? Watched a couple of KS strutters head towards the roost yesterday. I'm not sure exactly where they went, but they can't be far.

I need more turkey to carry my starving family through the long hard winter ahead. It is a real sacrifice to hunt this hard, but I love them enough to do it. Good luck to anyone else going today.

Do it for your family preacher. Lol

There are a few folks I’m aware of in Nebraska right now that post here often, I’m sure there are more that i don’t know of too.

Tomorrow is my b-day and unless disaster strikes, I will be attempting to keep my b-day streak alive. Depending on where I go and the corresponding cell service, I hope to be able to keep you guys up to date.

Good luck Mr. Steve and the others hunting today! I'm at work...against my will.

Good lord willing Stony and I fly out the night of the 9th for our last trips of the 2018 spring turkey season. We should be hunting by the 10th if travel goes as scheduled.

Good luck to all of y'all taking a trip or already hunting!

I pulled up at my gate a little after flydown time Saturday and heard 7 different birds gobbling. About the first time I’ve heard multiples all year and I’m pretty positive that the last 2 times I hunted up there during turkey season I never heard a single gobble.

The turkeys that I tried to hunt early never said a word. Turkeys everywhere are just unpredictable. I went to another spot about 11 and saw a turkey in a big field. I walked down next to a creek and there was a turkey gobbling in 86 degree heat. I called in 2 hens, and 3 longbeards followed them. The gobblers were so close together that I couldn't shoot without killing all of them, and they got into 15 yards before one walked away from the group. And none of these were the turkey that was gobbling; he was in the woods on the other side of the field. Guess I will try that spot again this afternoon.

Good luck to everyone still hunting.

When that happens to me I don’t wait for separation, I say a prayer that they don’t. lol

Congrats on the birds so far
