jjb4900 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 If I were you, I'd start turkey hunting.....I find it more exciting then deer hunting, usually nice and warm out and still time for a round of golf in the afternoon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Nice action there Biz. I would set up for that bird. May as well start turkey hunting now that you own the land. ^^^^^^ This 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grampy Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Looks like an excellent property, Biz. Filled with everything a NY hunter could want! Lots of memories will be made there with you and your Dad. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be out of the country for opening day, but maybe my Dad will shoot that Tom. I'll probably try on the 7th. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BizCT Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 Got up this morning with plans to fish with low winds. Went to 2 different bait shops and neither had sawbellies or shiners, what a waste. Something with a delivery from the finger lakes. Lots of mad customers. Anyway decided to walk the land and check cams even though it's only been a week. Kicked up 3 deer, and 7 turkeys in the 1.5 hours I was there. The turkeys were bedded about 50 yards the hill from where I get the pics. They all took off flying. Also, got this pretty funny pic of a squirrel. I'll probably pull cams once batteries die and put them back out in mid summer. Also went back to look at skull and it's definitely a doe deer.

The_Real_TCIII Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I was at my brothers today, he lives on the water on grand island. We dipped a zillion Great Lakes emerald shiners and fatheads off his dock just killing time. You could darn near walk across the canal on them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BizCT Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'm still in Costa Rica, but my Dad hunted opening day for turkey. Rained pretty good he said. He saw 2 deer and a black squirrel, but no turkeys. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATbuckhunter Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Try to be in your spot by 4:45 tomorrow, so you can hear them gobbling off the roost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get up at 7am and see how the weather looks. Probably get there before 8 and see what happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably get there before 8 and see what happens. I said the same until I did today and heard 5 toms gobbling their heads off in all directions for an hour. Shook me up so bad, that I couldn't even properly call on the pot call. Either way good luck to you tomorrow. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of weeks ago I kicked them up, they were bedded down so maybe I'll get lucky and see them again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BizCT Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 Took the day off today. Decided to fish instead of turkey hunt. Struck out on trout but picked up a couple of bass. Heading over to land soon to break in my Dads new atv, take a soil test, check cams, etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LET EM GROW Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Toms have a full fan and a longer beard...jakes usually have a 2" beard max and the middle tail feathers are longer compared to the ones on the edges. Mostly true, I have killed sevral jakes when i was younger that had 4 and 5 inch beards, even killed 2 jakes in my teens that had 6 and 6.5 inch beards.. and also had the fence post in the middle of the tail fan. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
