Title: Fired up...literally
Post by: headbanger on April 09, 2013, 10:23:08 AM
Received a call from the landowner of a farm I hunt regularly this morning. The call was to inform me not to be surprised when I arrived this weekend at dark thirty. The forest service did a controlled burn on the farm yesterday :happy0064: This farm holds a fair amount of birds but was THICK with undergrowth. I'm pumped! I have killed birds before on burned ground with the stumps still smoldering...can hardly wait for the weekend :OGani:

Good luck. Usually burned land is a magnet for turkeys IMO.
