Saw 3 different groups of turkeys this morning on the way home from work. Strutters were in all 3 of them!! I pulled over and shut my truck down near the 1st group and start yelping on my diaphragm. The big boy loved it and gobbled his butt off!! I was standing beside my truck enjoying his gobbles floating through the cool, brisk air!!
I'll be in the woods in 2 weeks!!!

They are showing up here in Cali too. Stopped the truck yesterday and took a pic with my cell- Single old tom, limping- No beard and 1 1/2" spurs- ten yards from the truck!
Junior hunts start the weekend before general season - March 23 and 24. General season on the 30th.

Wildspur, I live in Florida. Its green here year round.
2with1, he's a goodun!! If you check the other pics of him, his beard is dragging the ground! But he is safe. He is on an unhunted ranch. That's why I can call to him without having to worry about screwing up my hunting.

I hear you! Just interesting how different it is in other places. Back in 08 we had a little snow at sunrise one morning. Some places here it does not get real green until the 2nd week of May.

Good luck Turkeywhacker!!
I'll be getting my head shaved for St. Baldricks on Saturday, then headed to SC to hunt for a week! The next weekend I have a hunt here in FLA. Keep me posted if you get one brother!!
2with1, they've been strutting down here since January, so I feel your pain!!
