Been out every day but one and both Thursdays for work since the opener,  getting the ever loving crap kicked out of me by these birds, this weird weather and this late spring.  Henned up toms, jakes acting like they own the woods and hens nastier than an old drunk lady losing at bingo.  It's been a rough one.

Joe, been getting the same treatment for the past 1.5 weeks.  My guess is since we had real cold weather up until 2 weeks ago, that the hens were late sitting on eggs.  Haven't seen single hens much until the last couple of days.  But this morning the 2 that I called up were both big birds.  And the one I chose to shoot has  1 1/8 spurs so I am guessing the other was not a daffy 2 year old, but have no way of knowing for sure.  This is the first morning where I have gotten a mature bird to play along.  Had called up 13 jakes up until now.  Let's hope it's starting to get good.  And don't think it will die off at the end of May.  I have had plenty of success around here in the past on May 31.  Good luck.

Thanks X and congrats!!
