Title: Public SC Gobbler
Post by: WNM on April 03, 2013, 07:53:04 AM
Couldn't hunt opening morning, but from the sounds of it, everyone and their brother was after 'em on public..I wasn't sure how some of the birds I had scouted had faired.

Had 2 birds roosted last Thursday, but they didn't want to talk this morning. Got on another bird after flydown, but he hung up over a ridge with hens. While calling to him, this bird got fired up and came from a looooong way away to 100 yards in no time flat. He hung up on the other side of a creek/ditch, but the silent treatment did him in. He was spitting, drumming, strutting, and gobbling all the way to the end of of my barrel.

1" spurs, 10 9/16" beard

 :icon_thumright: I remember the public land in SC as getting lots of pressure and I hunted it from the mountains to the coast.
