Team Turkey Takers.... (Team#6)

[cw642]

Good Job! I'm not having very good luck. The only birds I had in were small jakes. I passed on them because it was 6:30 of the first day. Most of the toms are roosting with 5-10 hens and they don't want to leave a forsure thing. Hope the the rain holds off. Maybe Friday will be my day!

Way to go huntmup!

The Toms around here are henned up, with several females. Should be interesting this weekend..

[Powerstroke]

Very henned up this morning. I had 5 jakes come in very stealthy, no doubt trying to avoid the beat down they would get form the big boy if he heard them near my decoy.

I put 2 to bed tonight so we'll see how tomorrow morning goes.

[Powerstroke]

SUCCESS!!! PIcs and story to follow. Going to register and get the scoring done.

[fishnhooks]

YES!! Way to go!.

We will watch for the pics and story.

[ChuckN]

[fishnhooks]

[Powerstroke]

Thanks everyone. Good luck ChuckN!! Let'm have it. They seem kinda henned up still, but I found a few nests that are getting full so guys with the C,D,E seasons are looking pretty good with the later spring. Looks like you're gonna have amazing weather too. Bring the bug spray.

ChuckN,

Hope you were succesful! What's the good word?

"hooks"

[ChuckN]

The good word is I had a wonderful 5 days of hunting! However, I can't help the team score a bird.

Today started with a positive note of finally hearing birds gobble after 3 days of silence to no bird in sight.

I'll post the outcome of the hunt.

[fishnhooks]

I know what you mean. I can't wait to get out there. It was pretty nice weather and that makes it even more fun. I think it even fun seeing the other critters that don't know that your out there.( or maybe they don't care your out there)

"hooks"

[ChuckN]

Looks like you're next hooks! Good luck!

[fishnhooks]

Thanks Much,

Its going to be a long day at work today!

I can hardly wait to get out there. I know that I will enjoy being out there, but I am hoping to get this job taken care before Saturday

Hey hooks- what's the word on the hunt?

[fishnhooks]

Sorry Team I had hens stop by and say "Hi" and got a few pics. I had Gobblers teasing me and couldn't get them buggers to come over to play. I had nice weather and it was fun to see the hens, deer, ducks and geese. I learned a little more and have some more thoughts for next year, so I guess I can't complain. Since I saw just about everything but the Toms, next year I will pretend I am hunting everything but the Toms and see what happens

"Hooks"

[huntmup]

Hooks, at least you got out and enjoyed the woods and wildlife. If you were able to put something in your back pocket for next year, well, that's what it's all about.

[ChuckN]

No need to apologize hooks. Sounds like you had a good hunt, and that's all that counts. Those Toms were hard on me too...

The day after my hunt, and a couple days after that, 2 Toms with their hens made their appearances where I hunted. They would sit in the middle of the road, act fearless...just to tease me I guess.
