Title: Old Gobbler Kill Count
Post by: Nimrodmar10 on May 15, 2011, 01:51:57 PM
Just an informal count for the folks on OldGobbler.com to see what kind of season we've had for the Spring of 2011.  I'm just curious. I think we will be surprised by the numbers.

If your season is still open and your kill number changes, you can go back and change it on the poll.

Shoot man, come down to TN and hunt with us. Six week season and four bird limit. Plenty of public land. I know I'd be traveling if our limit was only one bird.

Had my personal best season ever killing 10 and watching 4 more killed.

Post by: hoyt on May 16, 2011, 02:17:59 PM
I didn't kill but one in S. Illinois this yr., but due to health and screwed up weather didn't hunt buy two mornings.

Guess I'm going to start doing a little travailing next season. Got a real good spot near Nashville I can hunt that's loaded with turkey and I'm not 20miles from the Ohio River and Ky. Indiana's not 60 miles away and Mo. can't be that far off either.

My season isn't over yet, but I've killed 2 in Idaho and 1 in Washington, I'm still trying for my second Washington bird and can hunt until May 31.  Also watched my dad and buddy kill two apiece earlier in the season.

I've got 3 this year, but really should be at 5. Not happy with my Kansas hunting, so probably will hit it the last 3 days of May for hopefully some redemption.

I had another great season ,with several exciting and memorable hunts that reassured myself why I keep waking up at those disgusting early morning hours.

I'm trying to keep it as fresh and new and my first year out there - Time flies , been 27 consecutive and successful Florida seasons without a skunk in there -

I'll be there in a few years. Thanks to Florida's jerkoff, thief governor and the GOP super majority in the Florida house & senate, my retirement just got gutted after 24 years of service, and a promise for all those years of a certain retirement. >:( But now they have yanked the carpet out from under my feet, and gutted my retirement. So I'll be entering my "retirement" looking for a 2nd career, and not having the money or time to do the hunting I have dreamed of for all of my adult life. >:( At least I'll get to help vote those @#$%&! out of office before I retire. :you_rock:
