[Pygmy]

We're going into the home stretch now, and at last we have a warming trend.

 

Good luck to all of you who have tags remaining..

Cant make it out in the A.M. but I am free and clear Tue, Wed, and Thur. I have hunted at least a dozen times this spring and I have had close action every time. Passed up Jakes and have seen several good Toms,  that I just couldn't shoot, for one reason or another. I have NEVER had a season like this!!  If I don't score I can't B!t@H!!..But I have some revised plans in mind……. LOL!!!

Heading back out in the morning Danno!! With the temps in the 70's this week, that might be the ticket!!!

[Pygmy]

Yeah, Paulie...And I have my thermacell and my " Buzz-Off" facemask all packed in my vest, too ...

 

Now if I can just avoid stepping on one of those Cameron rattlesnakes....<<grin>>.....

Sunday lunch with my folks and some family today, sitting on their back deck. A tom came out onto the lawn in full strut. I did a really pathetic voice call for show-n-tell with the non-hunters and he started strutting towards us. Human laughter and the barking dog sent him slowly back into the hedgerow where he spent some time ogling a woodchuck.

I don't know if he was tone-deaf, blind, or just seriously female-deprived. I'm almost thinking about buying a stamp.

[Lawdwaz]

Not sure when I'll get out again........can't pack it in yet.

Good luck to you folks going after them...

[ATbuckhunter]

Ill be going out one last time on Saturday. I already got a bird this year so anything else is just icing on the cake. 

[turkeyfeathers]

Have the ability and days off to hunt 7 of the remaining 9. Good luck everyone.

Well, another very quiet morning to say the least!!! Was in the woods at 5:15am, stayed right till 10:45....ZIP!!! I waited till 6:15am and didn't hear a single gobble, then proceeded to set up and cold call. After picking out a tree and got the blind set up, I walked out to stake the deeks. Guess what was right on the ground, a wing feather. This woods was my honey hole, and could depend on this spot to produce all the time, but nothing but a lone gobble last week, then complete silence!!! The only thing that showed up this morning was a young buck. I tried to get a pic because he was starting to wind me.

I think I'm over hunting my area. I'll give it a rest and be back before the 31st.

I've only seen 1 hen this year but lots of jakes.
