I am so blessed to see another year (51 of them now) but it's this time of the year that spring begins to weigh heavy on the ol' mind; the calls begin to come out, the turkey vest gets a good going over, the shells are being bought, new toys are being looked at, and on , and on and on;
Do ya'll have the same problem? it's bad for me; Happy New Year and may all of you hear more gobbles in 2012.......God bless................ :smiley-patriotic-flagwaver-an
Can not wait
I hear ya! I already picked up a slate call from motherlode turkey calls, I bought an EOTech sight for my 835, a Beartooth Comb Raiser, and I'm waiting on my picatinny rail so I can install my sight!
Changed back to HTL this season. Shooting 3.5-2.25-6 Hevi-13 with a PG .670 choke.
Once she's all setup, I'll post up a pic.
I just made some jerky with the last of my Fall bird. I'm looking forward to the Spring season to put another Tom down and turn him into some more jerky.
90 days till turkey season
I gotta wade through 6 feet of deer hunting stuff that needs to be put away so I can get to my turkey hunting stuff.
I was just thinking need to get the turkey calls out let the fun begin

You don't turn corners at 51, you top hills ;D I'm right there with you (51) though.
Good luck in 2012. :icon_thumright:

Me too.
Ordered my shells yesterday.
stole a couple boxes of mag blends(very cheap) the other day and got all my gear together just waitin on 3-31
I broke out the mouth calls and have been practicing since before Christmas.
I have an hour commute to work and a lot of time to work on the calls.
I have a CD of Real Turkeys that I listen to and call along to.
Yep, i have it bad
washing, cleaning, organizing, and putting away all my Deer gear Tonight
A few new calls and maybe Jake decoy and im ready besides playing with shells and chokes again in march/april
I got a realturkeys III disc and wouldnt mind a few more, nice to practice with on the long drive to my buddies in the Catskills.
I know im getting way more Hooks mouth calls after trying them last year
I know I want a lights out Aluminum pot
I need to find a good sounding short box
Could buy a butterball a week for what I put into turkey hunting a couple of tough Ol' birds..
I think about turkey hunting 365 days a year and I can't wait until spring, however, I get to hunt waterfowl until the end of January here in Washington so I've got ducks/geese on my mind as well.
