Quick hunt. 3 gobbles on roost. They flew down   I cut the distance from 250 yards to about 150 using ridge as cover.  1 purr and cut me off. 2 hens got behind me at 10 yards. This gobbler was on a st

I spent this morning on the property....Hear and saw NOTHING !  Since I had a few chores to tend to, I pulled the plug at 11:30...

I decided to hunt another property tomorrow, for a change of scenery...

Just as I was pulling out of the gate, three BIG longbeards were crossing the road onto  our property...

I guess I'll be hunting there again tomorrow.... Hehehe....

He also travels quite the distance and often goes the distance (without boozing hard!) to make the GTGs. Good Dude...good outdoorsman from NYC(Queens is close enough!)

Dudes got great dedication. Shit I live 5 mins drive on a slow day from where I hunt and sometimes I just roll over and go back to sleep. Way to get it done!

Hell of a Slowwww start for me-- LOL! Enjoying being out there and trying though. Home early. Things to do. If it Thunders, I am racing out the door to the woods!  0 for 13 so far..

Bill , after awhile of deer hunting and turkey hunting and not killing one I always think there’s gotta be a dumb one out there as every town has its town idiot. It keeps my head in the game looking for that one. Can’t say you aren’t putting the effort in.  You’ll get rewarded.

I have no doubt that you will get a gobbler down at some point this season. You are too good, and too dedicated, to not pull it off somehow, somewhere, someway. Was it last year you tipped over a huge tom near the end of the season? Wishing you luck. Get out there and send it!

After last years issue, i ran straight to the bird and didnt let it out of sight until it completely stopped moving.

dude, very cool story and I completely know the feeling after rolling one a few years back that i probably could have caught up too if I moved my ass. There isn't much sweeter than a bang flop.

I agree. Nothing sweeter than bang, flop. That's him just left of the big maple tree.

It was Gobbler Central on the property this morning Seven longbeard sightings..A couple may have come by twice, but I know for sure there were five separate gobblers..

And with all that, I couldn't coax ONE within gun range...<<sigh>>….

Oh well... With that many birds around, one is sure to make a mistake sooner or later....Or not....Hehehe....

Anyone got any options on the Alps grand slam vest? Looking to get A vest. Never had one before and it's just getting too cumbersome to deal with everything in pockets and still attempt to be stealthy

I like my Striker vest from Bass Pro. Wasn't very expressive and is comfortable. Only thing that sucks is the box call pocket. Good vest.

They support nwtf and they donate to out banquet. Everything they donate has been top notch. I don't think they will disappoint.

Headed out in the morning to hunt a new/old property here in town.  It's several hundred acres I used to hunt almost 10 years ago.  It got sold and sold and sold again, so now I have permission again.  A few small, hidden back fields and the rest is a series of hardwood ridges.  I have killed a half dozen birds there over the years, so I'm hoping to at least hear a bird and work a bird.

I ditched the vest and went to a hip pack which I like, but this is looking pretty good too

The big thing I figure is with the vest I can have the seat all together. I never hunt turkeys from a blind.
