You gotta sweet talkem. Leave the locators at home and start walking and doing soft yelps. Been workin for me. :z-guntootsmiley:
Called in another one this morning for a buddy but he wasn't able to shoot. It came in on my side. I didn't even have my gun up. Hate to tag out this early. :bike2:

Dustin I don't use locator calls,,at all,, and the walking along doing the soft yelp thing just makes the hens turn and leave takeing the toms with them.

Well they ain't but two things left to do. Wait another week or two and let most of the hens go to nest or hunt them later in the morning after the hens leave to lay another egg. Thats just turkey hunting at its best and at its worst.

Been a really nutty season this year.   Today I was 2 different bachelor groups out in fields feeding.  One group was 4 mature Toms and one was 3 mature Toms and 4 Jakes.     Now that's just plain nuts.    I swear i expect to start seeing poults any day.

Shawn.  The season ended in Fla. April 6 for the Southern Zone where I hunt. and it ended this past wk. end for the Northern Zone.   (I think).  I've been hunting in Ga. since Mar. 26th.

My birds have all of the sudden got quit.  I heard one bird on our place Saturday Morning, and one bird acroos the river today.  I hit it hard today, and din't ahve any luck.  I bumped one tom while doing a little running and gunnning, then on my way out I had a tom run across the road from me.  It's been a long hot day.  I tried to hang in there until fly up, bhut I am beat.  Back after them tomorrow. 

Dan, will you get to get back up here before the season closes May 15?

Shane,  I don't think I'll be back in Sandersville after we make our trip to N. Georgia and Ky. next wk.  but you never know.   I've got one buddy in Mia. that wants to go bad and I just might make a trip back up with him.

When you headed up to Kentucky? Which way are you going, through Knoxville or Nashville.

I had another slow day today as well.  We've got some raining coming in tomorrow.  I'm going to take my late father's ground blind and go sit in a filed the birds seem to frequent when it rains.  I'm not much of blind user type guy, but I think it will be the ticket with all tha rain coming in.  

Dan if you guys come through Atlanta on your way to Kentucky give me a shout.  Maybe we could meet for LUnch/Dinner or something.  Good Luck in the morning.  I hope you can pull out  alast minute bird.  You sure deserve it! :anim_25:
