Off to a good start for IA 3rd season

[tree-rat sniper]

Got lucky yesterday afternoon, spooked a group of 12 birds, climbed the neighbors treestand to get a better view and ended up calling back 3 longbeards, this one had the longest beard (11"). I'm hoping to run into one of the other two during 4th season.

Forgot to mention, the bird weighed 24 lbs. Right spur was 1" left was 1-1/8". 2nd bird from a tree-stand, 5th in a row during the afternoon.

Zone 4 is probably the best, followed by zone 6.

Can't say for sure, I haven't turkey hunted anywhere but my neighborhood for the past decade... looks like I'm in zone 8 btw.

Congrats on  nice bird! I have never hunted them form a treestand other than in the fall when I'm bowhunting deer. Then I'm not really hunting them, it's more of ambushing one it I get a chance at one.

I'm itching to get out 4th season also, but it's not going happen.    Between a wedding, Mother's Day, the wife's birthday(party) and a couple of other commitments, I have one day I can hunt. That would be the afternoon of the last day...well as of right now I don't have anything planned for me that afternoon.
