Backing season up a week in South Alabama is total bulldoodoo! There's no biological reason! Chuck made that clear when he made the statement that "Bringing in season on a Saturday when everyone is off makes it fair"! In other words damn the guys that work shift work, damn the guys that eat, sleep, live and breathe turkeys that burn our vacation time to ensure we're off for opening day, we're gonna make season open on Saturday so my buddies that work office jobs Monday through Friday will stop bending my ear!
Sorry Chuck, you lost my support and respect with that statement! It was a bulldoodoo move at playing politics with game and fish!
I’ve been on that rant too. Starting a turkey season in Chatom, AL and Scottsboro, AL on the same day is insanity.
I drove from Clarke County to the AL/TN border on April 2nd. Shaking my head the whole time. It went from tropical rain forest, full green, to very little spring growth at all.
