My sentiments are right in there with a big lot of you.  I'm tired of waiting.  Come on April 9th.  We didn't even hunt first weekend last year because of the snow, but I believe we'll be out this year snow, rain or shine.

I still haven't decided if we'll drive to eastward to hunt Isaac's limited tag or drive south (much closer) to hunt OTC, but were going.  We may hold off and give Isaac's tag a chance on our way back from IL on the 25th and 26th then drive back if necessary.

I'm going to try to make it to where we killed last year's CO bird and listen/scout on Saturday.  I'm not sure if the road will be open that high since we didn't hunt there before the end of April last year.

Last year's bird was taken here.

In late May the temps were cold enough that we were wearing thermals and Isaac's ears were freezing

This morning looked similar to this and it was 4.2 degrees when I left my house this morning............good thing the turkeys don't live up here.

That looks like some awesome country to hunt birds in.  I hope to get out there some year.

Hobbes, you come hunt with me, and I'll come out and go skiing with you!! :lol:
Good luck bro!!! :anim_25:

I'd rather you come shoot a turkey with me, but I can ski too.  I think I can honestly state that I am a better turkey hunter than skier, but that may not be saying much.
