I have one piece of private property that I hunt. The rest are all public land.

I have 3 pieces of private property that I hunt on throughout the season with my family.  During the week if I can get away from work I head the the national forest land near where I live and hunt to hunt without my kids.

3 private properties around 1300 acres each

I have a few small local farms (<150 acres each), and a few public properties 90 minutes drive from here.  There's more turkeys and fewer hunters on the public land, but my best birds come off the private land.

I just secured another 200 acre farm this past week.  Spent nearly 2 hours talking to the farmer--talkative ole fella.  Nearly got a divorce when I got home after not answering my phone while I was talking to the old guy, but hey, this is turkey season we are talking about. :angel9:

Due to old age and heart problems I only hunt one spot now. I just walk into Shawnee National Forest, Il., (it's right behind my house) and hunt about 1,000 sq. acres of it's ridges and drainage's. Used to be quiet a few turkeys back in there, but few to almost none now. I've been covering a lot of ground with feet and trail cams to try and find any sign or birds and so far have pics. of one longbeard and one jake this yr...couple hens also.
