New season right around the corner

[Tom007]

Gents, hope you had great off season. Looking forward to this year, I'll join you guys again on the Killer Bees if you'll have me. Be safe, it's right around the corner!

If a "corner" covers 105 days..... yeah.  Right around the corner.   

Maybe..... Hopefully..... I'll find somewhere that'll let me hunt before May 2nd

Yes, how did you fare!? Seemed like it was quite underwhelming for most places but maybe not where you're at. Yes, good for the animals on one hand, here. On the other no snow either! Sitting at a very minimal snowpack which we hope turns around soon!

Hard to tell how much we got due to the wind.  Somewhere around 15" is my best guess.

Not supposed to be above freezing for AT LEAST the next 2 weeks.   Gonna be hard on the critters.

Can't wait for this season gentlemen! My apologies for not being more active last year. In late April of 2024, I had a week that I can only hope of replicating one day, where everywhere I went, the turkeys were "right" and I had no mishaps. Well since then, everything that could go wrong, has gone wrong.

In May of '24, I had messes with two different rental cars in Colorado, one that lead to sleeping on the mountain in sub freezing temperatures, the other rolled over in a ditch. The following week, the front left tire of my truck sheered off going 60 down the highway when I was 3 hours from Mississippi on my way back home from a successful hunt in Michigan.

Last year, with respect to turkeys, I could not hardly find a gobbling turkey anywhere I went across multiple states. Just bad timing. Despite that, it was enjoyable in a "gotta laugh at yourself for being snakebit" kinda way. Was able to kill a couple late in season in Mississippi, and one in Colorado. That was up until mid May went I went to the Indian reservation in North Dakota. Was able to kill 2 turkeys, but when I made it back to the rental car my last night, someone had busted out all the windows. I rented through Turo, and the host was kind, but it was an ordeal with both time and money. That didn't stop me from going to Utah Memorial Day weekend, where I ended the season on a miss, then found out I had scratched that rental on the mountain and the body shop was price gouging the host 

I somehow still have insurance, but hoping for a less stressful (and less finanically crippling lol) turkey season this year. I hope everyone is doing well and being safe in this weather. Essentially iced in here in North Mississippi. Can't wait to hear about y'alls plans this Spring!
