I heard 2 this morning , I haven't been hunting turkeys enough to talk about this year bc of lack of interest/turkeys . I am out a lot though and haven't heard much of nuttin til this morn--- taliaferro co.
At least you’re getting to hunt. I’ve only gotten to hunt one morning all year. I called one in that morning. Could hear him walking and clucking but could never see him. All I’ve gotten to hunt is afternoons. Luckily I killed one opening Sunday afternoon. Hopefully I get to go again before it closes
Absolutely love hunting turkeys in the spring but it can get demoralizing pretty quick when you hear nothing after getting up at 3:30 AM day after day.
It has been a roller coaster ride of a season I should be limited out but I’m still at zero, you know its gone down hill for me when I have 5 days to hunt( between the last two weekends) and only go twice with good weather just didn’t know where to go those 3 am wake ups and 1.5 hour drives got the best of me, I’ll muster some strength for Friday and Saturday if I can get some gas ️
Don't give up yet, they're still gobbling and strutting. Been on 1 for the past 2 mornings and he's gonna be a booger to kill, but's he's vocal and he's playing the game.
Had another spot where I was set up on an old tram road through a swamp yesterday afternoon. Caught a really good looking longbeard feeding and walking down the road towards me. Watched him close the distance 250-300 yds or so over course of about 45min. When he got to 60-65 he was feeding back and forth on the side of the road and then just vanished. I know he didn't see me, and I know for sure 3 of the 4 directions he could of gone he didn't. The other direction would of required him flying over or wading water up to his neck and I didn't see any water movement or hear any wingbeats. I just had to laugh at that one!
