That being said, I'd try and get out the 22nd, or thereabouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made my post before even looking at the calendar... or having any idea what today's date was for that matter! This working every other day thing has got me so screwed up, I never know what day it is, it always feels like Friday or Saturday. Which is wonderful.

BizCT Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) Not official yet, but there are whispers about @Biz-R-OWorld hunting tomorrow morning before work. Given that the sun rises in the east, I would suggest that you all set your alarms extra early and tune in! EDIT - anyone else having log in issues with phone/tapatalk? forum works fine with computer but on tapatalk it keeps saying i am not logged in when i am.

Lawdwaz Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Latest I ever killed is May 30th and it was extremely gratifying. Sadly I missed a big Tom on the last day one year.....the exact opposite of gratifying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think May 30th is the latest I have killed a tom in NY..However, I have killed a few on the final day of several out of state hunts...The last day I had to hunt, not the last day of season.. On the other hand, I can remember at least two that I missed on my final day of hunting in Ontario.. Edited May 12, 2020 by Pygmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyfeathers Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Hummingbird feeder juice frozen as I peer out back window drinking my coffee. Turned off alarm thinking how it’s supposed to be fun hunting spring turkey. No gobbles heard with daughter lately and freezing cold and her being tired doesn’t sound fun to me for her. Hard pass on today. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlammerhirt Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Had the alarm set for 4:20 and was going to setup in a local spot.. Alarm never went off because it was set for tomorrow and around 5 my 4yr. old asked if I would come lay down in his bed.I will try again tomorrow but we'll wait for it to warm up a bit and hit the creek for some smallmouth this afternoon.Sent from my moto z3 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
