BD...Sure hope you find a good tract or club real soon! Be nice to get those stands back up in a place where you won't need to move them for a few years.

This is my second year turkey hunting and it has definately been different from last year. I went down and hunted Saturday and Sunday morning both and heard one turkey gobbling early Sunday morning a few times but was quiet by 7:00. Last year every time I went out I heard plenty of gobbling and we saw the most turkeys during last deer season that we have seen in the 11 years hunting this property.

Did hear one...
Well, I spent Saturday AM in the woods and heard one gobble 3 times on roost and once he flew down, nothing. Sit for 3 hours in general vicinity light calling, but to no avail. I think this may have been my last hunt this year, gonna start trout fishing in the mountains, maybe I will have better luck at that
The last 3 or 4 turkey seasons has been frustrating to say the least. Birds are tough to come by. Good luck the remainder of the year OC guys.

BD...Time for fishing. Son and I went out this morn and covered all parts of the property and not a single gobble. Heard quite a few bob whites calling though.

Went down and gave it one last try for the season Sunday morning and nothing. Last year was my first year for turkey hunting and I had gobbling every time out but just couldn't close the deal on one. It was so good it got me hooked big time. This year I have heard a total of 3 turkeys. Its a good thing last year was as good as it was because if it was like this year I would have had a short turkey hunting career. I can't figure what has happened to the turkeys. We saw the most we have ever seen during this past deer season and used to have tracks everywhere. I saw one fresh set of tracks Sunday morning since the rain is all I saw.

Fred - I feel your pain. At this point it's just all guessing as to what has happened to the turkey population but one thing I know for sure - far fewer turkeys today...at least on our place. 7 years ago they were aggravating during deer season there were so many. Today, it's a rare thing to see a turkey from the deer stand. On the upside, we've seen more this year than the past 3 years and killed 2 toms. But still, nothing like years past.

I hated I didn't get more footage of him. When the hen came from my left I had my gun that way some unsure if there was a gobbler with her too. I watched him for several minutes before I could move my gun and camera. Boys, she was right in my pocket , I can't believe she didn't spook when I moved but he was dead which ever side the tree he came out on.
