Anyone hunt around Black kettle or Packsaddle? Just wanted to see if generally the population has rebounded at all. Hunting the eastern side of the state but would love to chase Rios again. Only have 3 days left unfortunately so was hoping someone would give a general update of if its worth driving across the state.

Good luck.  Sorry I have no info to share.  Maybe someone PMed you.  You'll never get an answer to this type question on this forum.  More secrets here than the CIA. :welcomeOG: unless you ask something relevant.

BTW - I knew a Jerry McCullough but you probably aren't him unless you're 80 years old.  LOL.

Way too many hunters at either WMA. The out of state  truck tags there are in insane. Thanks YouTubers!

There's one YouTube video of a guy doubling up on toms at one of the public OLAP properties. I haven't seen a turkey on that place since.

Sure would be nice if people figured out loose lips sink ships. 
Nothing like seeing a kids eyes light up upon hearing that first gobble.

:deadhorse: Easy to take this subject into the "beating a dead horse" category. Social media and YouTube are here to stay.  Many states already have harvest statistics on line and readily available.   Most all list their public land  opportunities and regulations. More will likely join these type of open information disclosure systems and give more information not less.  I often look up the current number of kills to date on several Florida WMAs and counties I have frequented over the years. Easy then to see what's hot and what's not. I can do the same in Kentucky and most likely multiple other states.  No matter how many kick, scream and whine the secrets are out. There are no more secrets.  Time to adapt or find a new passion.  The ship has sunk.  Man the lifeboats.
