After listening to everybody in the country talking about turkey hunting,  We Mountaineers in West Virginia FINALLY open tomorrow.  The bad news?  The DNR announced that the turkey population is down here also but yesterday in youth season I know of two fine longbeards taken.  Hope I can get on the board quick.  I have all week off.

Great opening morning bird! Not sure about WV but the harvest numbers in MD are higher than average.
