Good luck and have a safe trip.
Well..... 900-some miles of windshield time today.
I'm in the Sunshine State !! Going to visit with a friend tomorrow morning....then head west to the property.
Talked to another buddy today who lives in the Gainesville area (not too awfully far from where I'll be hunting). He said that this is the worst and weirdest year he has ever seen. :-\
If there any birds left there they'll be in trouble with a Pennsylvania slayer like Yoder coming for em.
Just hoping to hear a gobble.
If I can get one to gobble, I like MY chances better than HIS chances....
We'll see.

That's what I call confident right there...I like it!
Have yet to see or hear a bird. Have seen zero sign. One buddy did kill this afternoon. Totally silent bird.
Good luck

'Silent but deadly", we all know what that means, Go get 'em Don, good luck!
It IS weird.
On 500 acres of private with big woods...big pastures....good water. I have yet to see or hear a turkey. Not a feather or turd on the ground.
Buddy that got one yesterday heard 2 more this morning on a different property. Kinda suspect they may be feeding over there.
Gonna give it heck tonight and again in the morning. Hoping something changes.
Stay tank tough, you'll get on them.
Only hunting til lunchtime tomorrow, then headed back north to the gray, dreary, cold bucket of suck called "Pennsylvania".
We'll give 'er heck and see what happens.
All we can do.
Hopeful you're on one right now!
Nope. :(
Never saw or heard a turkey the whole weekend.
Unreal.
WOW!! That's super surprising Yoder. Was Hoping Florida would have produced way better for you.
Look at the bright side, it can only get better from here 😃
That's a rough go. I've been there many times. Keep your head up!
I feel your pain Yoder. I did have action all around me but no "BOOMING" lol. Good luck the rest of the season. Z
