I started us a thread to keep up with each other. So where is everyone from?

[BR549]

Thanks Georgia_hunter!! I am from Buford - I will be hunting mostly in Macon Co. and some in Elbert Co. this spring....looking forward to the challenge..should be alot of fun!

[The Termite]

I am from Tampa. I will be hunting the first two weeks on my lease in Perry Florida. I will be hunting on my lease in TAlbot GA. the entire week leading up to easter. I went scouting this weekend and saw two big gobblers and a jake. They are not gobbling on our property yet but hopefully they will be ready to play the game next weekend. Hope we all have a very successful turkey season.

[The Termite]

Who is hunting this weekend??????? I will be.

[BR549]

Oh yeah - I will be there! Any one heard from our other teammates? Good luck to all!

[Big Country Boy]

[The Termite]

Leaving at 5 am for Perry Florida. Going to spend Friday setting up camp and scouting for Saturday morning. Good Luck all and hope we all get one.

[georgia_hunter]

I am going tomorrow to listen, I hope I can get one located for saturday morning. Maybe we can all start it off with a good bird on opening day.

[georgia_hunter]

Hey guys, lets pick us a team name... What do yall have in mind...

[BR549]

open for anything on the team name.....headed out tomorrow at lunch - hope to put one to bed tomorrow night. good luck everyone!!

[The Termite]

Congrats on the Kill!!!!! I had no luck but i know where they are at for next weekend! Some gobbling on Saturday, NO GOBBLING on Sunday. I will find a suicide bird soon enough.

[BR549]

sorry guys - my bird got denied because of pic requirements! hopefully my next 2 will be longbeards - heard plenty of them this weekend but they all shut up after flydown and we could not do anything with them - going to Elbert or Banks this Saturday and then back down South to Macon Co. after that - good luck everyone!

[georgia_hunter]

Congrats on the kill. What did they say about the pics? I called in nothing but hens and jakes Saturday, I sat up on one but got to darn close and he flew down the other way. Then this morning I called in a nice tom for a friend but he only came into about 60 yards and then all of the sudden went out of the field. Hope to get back on them Wed. evening.

[BR549]

In my excitement I forgot to have my phone in the same pic with me and the bird all at the same time - did not realize it until after the 1 hour editing grace period - oh well - lesson learned the hard way! good luck this week!

[BR549]

BTW - anybody heard from Tanner Boyzz? you think someone should send him a PM?

[The Termite]

I am good with anything for the name. If I think of anything this morning I'll post it.

[georgia_hunter]

Guys I cannot think of anything for a name. So has anyone had any luck. I saw 7 this evening and one was almost solid white. Me and my hunting partner had them fired up right before the went to sleep. The only catch is they were not where we can hunt them. He said he might could get permisson if so in the morning will be one for the books.. Other than that I can do is call in Jakes and hens.

[BR549]

Good luck to you in the am gh!!

[Big Country Boy]

Finally got one after a rough couple of days it was pouring most of the evening. So i found some birds in one of the fields & setup a few soft calls from the (wood haven red wing ) brought him straight to the gun he had a 10"beard & a 1 1/4 -1 1/8 spurs.. A 21#er i've gotta upload all pics for the challenge tommorow i hope the rest of you guys get lucky soon !!! :cheers:

[georgia_hunter]

Thats great..Congrats on a fine bird. I saw 6 more jakes this morning just can't find any 2 yr olds.

[BR549]

awseome job BCB!! Great bird and a great way to get us on the board!! weather looks like it is going to keep me from going this weekend so I will have to wait till next Friday - good luck!

[Big Country Boy]

[The Termite]

Great Kill! The weather and work might keep me home this weekend as well. I am spending an entire week between my Fl and Ga properties starting next weekend so it won't hurt so much to take the weekend off. Might get the itch and go anyways.........

[HuntNTails]

dang I guess I am gonna have to pay someone to take me to kill a tuykey...

How much will you pay??? ::ke:

I might can find you one of these for a small fee...

[Big Country Boy]

Well even though i've seen a few birds through all this rain i'm really looking forward to tommorow maybe they will cooperate with the break in the weather.good luck to ya'll (lay-em-down !!!)

[BR549]

Good Luck BCB - It will be Friday before I get back after them.

[The Termite]

I will be back at it Saturday morning in Talbaton Ga and hunting till Tuesday. I hope to find 3 suicide Gobblers....ok I'll throw a Jake in there not to be too greedy.

[Big Country Boy]

Well fellas lets give it another try tommorow...should be good morning for dropping the hammer down on ol'mr. tom good luck to all ...:yawn:

[georgia_hunter]

Well I got one asleep in a tree. I am headed out to see if he wants to play.

[Big Country Boy]

WELL FINALLY FOUND ANOTHER GOBBLER THAT WOULD COMMIT & COME TO THE GUN :shoot: HE WASN'T TO BIG BUT HE'LL DO ( 9-1/4' BEARD & 1"SPURS ) I'M REALLY ENJOYING MY NEW 870-S.MAG I JUST WISH MY HUNTING BUDDY COULD HAVE BEEN THERE AGAIN...

[georgia_hunter]

Congrats on a fine bird. I don't know what I am gonna have to do to kill one. I have roosted one the past two evenings and when they6 flew down they went the other way...

[Big Country Boy]

Thanks....on my birds i've just had to go where they want to be. Then they will cooporate...but with this crazy weather its been tough.

[BR549]

Congrats BCB - another good bird

I know how you feel GH - just got back and had multiple birds on roost the past 2 mornings and they all went the opposite direction. hope I get them figured out soon - bad thing is they are not consisitent with where they are roosting nor where they are headed!

[georgia_hunter]

Well I finally connected. I saw some hens and looked around hoping he would be behind them, well he was. I was able to get in between him and the hens and made some clucks and purrs and got him to come into only 8 yards when I pulled the trigger. Man that 835 with 3.5 Nitro Heavy's took his head off. I had to do some doctoring just to get a presentable pic. Well maybe the next 2 will come now.

[Big Country Boy]

:yeah: PERSISTANCE ALWAYS PAYS OFF !!! CONGRATS ON THE BIRDIE...& A ( W.M.A BIRD AT THAT ) WE NEED THE EXTRA POINTS KEEP EM' COMING :flag:

[The Termite]

Guys, I struck out! Hunted Sat, Sun, and Monday and only heard a couple birds gobble one time a piece. Tried everything to make it happen but the birds and the awful weather won this time. I'll be back at it in a couple of days when the wind comes down below 20 knots. Congrats on the kills to all of you.

[Big Country Boy]

:huh: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TANNER BOYZ :huh: I SEEN THAT ONE POST & HAVE'NT HEARD FROM EM' SINCE ...I CAN'T WAIT TILL THIS WEEKEND AFTER THIS COLD SNAP THEY SHOULD GET FIRED UP ARE YA'LL GONNA GET TO GO AFTER THEM ALSO ???? :shoot:

[georgia_hunter]

i'll be after them. I hope I can knock out number 2.

[The Termite]

I am leaving tomorrow afternoon! Maybe tonight if I can pull off enough work today. I sure hope it is better than last weekend.

[BR549]

Going to a new spot in the morning - hope the weather cooperates.

[Big Country Boy]

Go get after them !!! I'll be out there with ya ...I HOPE THIS 40 MPH WIND:hair: WILL BE OUT OF HERE !!! ( GOOD- LUCK )

[The Termite]

I got a jake yesterday morning. I saw the big boy that morning as well, 2 weeks left to go get him. I have been told to mount my Jake fan on a B moble and I will get the big boy to come running. I think it will be worth the investment to try that strategy. Will report the results as soon as they happen.

[Big Country Boy]

Yeah times running out !!! Congrats...your on the board.

[BR549]

had godzilla as close as 60 yards on the new piece of dirt I was at Saturday - the hens that we called in eventually gave into him and took him the other way - best hunt I have ever had - he gobbled from 6:50 till 9:45 when they left - I will be back after them in Macon Co this weekend. Good luck everyone.

[The Termite]

At it again for Saturday and Sunday. One more bird left in Florida for me so hopefully I can find the big boy. Good luck to all hunting this weekend. KILL KILL KILL!

[BR549]

went this am and only heard 1 gobble from the roost on some adjacent property - it was 39 degrees and that may have had them tight lipped - set up on a green field and had 6 jakes come in at abouy 9 and try and pick a fight with B-Mobile. Hope to get back out mid week.

[Big Country Boy]

BOY..... GETTING MY 3rd BIRD HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE :cry:.LAST WEEKEND I MISSED A GOOD TOM IN THE HARD WIND AT 45 YRDS. THEN THIS MORNING HAD 3 GOBBLING THEIR BRAINS OUT AT100 YRDS JUST TO HAVE HENS PULL EM AWAY THEN A HOUR LATER HAD A BIG BOY COME IN QUIET TO 20YRDS. SHOT JUST AS HE MOVED (WITH X-BOW ) HIT WAS BAD & I LOST HIM IN SWAMP :banginghe I SURE HOPE YOU GUYS ARE HAVING BETTER LUCK THAN ME :huh:

[georgia_hunter]

No luck here. They gobble their heads off in the tree and then shut up on the ground..

[Big Country Boy]

Heading out this morning....good luck to ya'll that are still in the chase.

[The Termite]

Work got me this morning......have not ruled out the 3 hr drive to close out the florida season tomorrow.

[Big Country Boy]

I've not been able to go much lately but hope to get to go this weekend.. Just wandering if ya'll are still after them also??? I have'nt seen any activity on our post.. :huh:

[georgia_hunter]

I had to go to Mexico for work but got back last night, so its game on again.

[Big Country Boy]

GONNA GIVE IT A TRY AGAIN GOOD LUCK TO ALL STILL IN THE CHASE :flag:

[The Termite]

Had to go to a Club Meeting on my Florida Property this weekend and still no gobbling. Saw 4 Males but very tight lipped!

[Big Country Boy]

I'm giving it my last shot in the morning. Then its over for me this year. But i've had a great time only 2- birds but i've had my chances !!!

[The Termite]

Good Luck! It has been a fun season......Hope for a better one next year.
