Don't need a plugged gun for turkey. 

Not sure why I thought they had to be plugged??

Too much waterfowl hunting back in the day I guess.

Or just straight up shooting because it’s the end of the season lol

If so, he's definitely not using TSS loads, lol

Had a chance for one last try today and killed a nice bird. No gobbling on the roost. This bird came to sporadic clucks and my decoy.

I didnt get out  my daughter and grandsons are here from Iowa  . Spent time with them before they go to their dads and my daughter go's home . Which is where I am now at Mahoneys steak house  just put my daughter on the train back to Iowa 

[cynthiafu]

Plus my husband doesn't hunt

[KBUsmc0311]

Went to Stewart, trying something different using a blind today and the plus side is I’m nice and dry. Last day no gobbles yet but I’m going to make the best of it and enjoy it.

This old tired body managed to climb the mountain for the last day of the season. Funny when the season just started this mountain was only a hill!!! I guess I am getting old.

[Team Hoyt]

No gobbles, 1 lone hen so far

[KBUsmc0311]

To bad she she didn’t have a beard, if any other hunters from this forum ran across me in the blind 15 mins ago thank you for backing out.

Jealous of everyone able to get out this weekend, congratulations to Virgil on his late season bird!  I had some great hunts this season, learned some lessons.  

[Lomax]

Hail Mary time.   Too nice out to not give it one last shot

8.45am-- Calling it a Season. Was going to stay longer- but 2 hunters entered the Field area.

   32 Total Days in NY+ NJ.

  I enjoyed every minute of it.

 Feel fortunate  to have killed that 23lber on May 3rd.

  And Cynthia almost scored twice.

Leaving this Field now.

Hey. I know that field.

Probably  a a few Hundred Hunters at least as well..

Yea. You’re right. Probably wouldn’t set up on that field on the last day of the season. I wonder how many hunters walk that field on the first two weekends alone....

Great spot as you know- 1st day + last. 

Great, not so sure. Pressured, yes.

Congrats to all the succesful and everyone else who stuck it out through the season.This was the first season I had to sit it out in a long time.Looking forward to next year when i'll have more time to hunt the birds of spring.

[KBUsmc0311]

My first turkey season is over and it was a success, not because I got a bird (I didn’t ) but because I learned a whole bunch and had fun doing it. Cynthia is was a pleasure meeting you, blackbeltbill thank you for the hip pocket class. This season, I learned how to hunt from the bare ground and a blind. I learned how to cut, purr and Yelp with a pot call( which I need to practice). Thank you guys for the knowledge and I enjoyed reading the posts. Maybe we can get together and do some pheasant hunting in the fall. For all the vets thank you for your service and for the fallen you are not forgotten. Have a great summer everyone see you in the fall.

Threw in the towel about 10:00 AM  ....This was my 49th  NY gobbler season  and I never took my safety off...

I had  several  chances to shoot  the same three jakes and passed...I named them Keith, Larry, and Dumbhead after three of my buddies at the Legion... Lots of hens seen in early and mid season ( 9 in one day)  so I hope they are busy incubating little turkeys for next year...I only missed being in the woods before daylight 6 times this season... Time to go fishing....

Had a very interesting morning. Snuck into woods early. Looked around and said. That doesn't look like a turkey. Yup, it's a bear. 5 seconds later this bear ran straight at me. I can't post the video but these screens shots show how close he came before I stood up and scared him away. The morning hunt went well too.

 

Hunted one more time this final weekend. Back to the bear spot. Birds were there but not interested. Had a nice walk in the green woods before the rain started. Was a good season. Now time to fish. See ya all next season.

four months away from the southern bow opener as of today!
