For about the last 20 years or so I have traveled each spring turkey hunting with friends and family. Pretty much what I look to year round.....so for the last two weeks I have packed and repacked my turkey hunting gear, and about wore out my trout rods! Here's a toast, that in two weeks this stuff has cleared up enough that we can hit the road for our first state, Kentucky! AND end in Maine!
Amen my friend.......
Absolutely!!

Here here! :z-winnersmiley:
Yes sir , for sure ..
Hope it works out for you my friend. Hopefully we all get to go to the woods and hunt the greatest game bird the Good Lord ever put on this earth
In Florida all the public land hunts are going off . If anything more people are in the woods than previous years because there out of work . Also the f w c posted they will not be meaning any check stations so who knows how many people are hunting without a quota on places that require quotas. All I know is there are a lot of people in the woods.

I retired 5 years ago, left 3 days later for Fla. camped and hunted public in Fla and it was a zoo.
I would love to kill and Oc, but. Will never go back to hunt public!
So I can't imagine more pressure!

It's been busy on public so far. But another week or so and the majority of the turkey chasers will stop going.

Read 3 books today. "Lessons Learned By the Magnificent Bird" 1 and 2 by Gary Shefton. These were pretty good I would recommend to any beginner and any veteran looking for a refresher and some new insights on hunting turkeys. The third was "Hunting Pressured Birds" by Brian Lovett. Didn't like this one so much as the title was misleading. It wasn't really about hunting pressured birds. It was more of a name dropping thing. Telling about how he hunted with all the big time turkey hunters trying to get video of hunts with a smattering of "pressured bird" scenarios thrown thrown in to try and keep with the title. I Wasn't to impressed.
The reason that the woods are full of "hunters" is that the "hunters" that started in the last twenty-five years neither learned or listened to what the grand old man who got me started hunting turkeys said, keep your mouth shut". For the rest of my life, I suppose that the die is cast. There ain't enough out there for 'em.
