Shout out to the fatties! Hopefully we are fully intact and ready to rock again this year...It seems every year we do just a little better so I'm pretty sure we are on our way to a WIN this year! If for some reason you cant accept the title of being a fat guy this year let me know ASAP so we can get a quality replacement. Never mind...you'll all be here again!
I'll send out reminder pm's soon...

Thanks FM for checking in early!

Great! Glad to see you could all make it back again this year!! I have some birds around but they are just starting to break up from the big winter groups. Ive got a couple gobbling behind the house regularly. I will be listening in a few of my other spots this weekend. Got 6 weeks again...LOL! Should be able to score a good one in that time frame. Last year I was starting to get worried and finally scored on 5/23.

Good Luck ALL!!

Saw some nice longbeards driving around this morning. Also checked in at two of my properties i have had permission to hunt in the past and they both said no problem again for this year. Things are looking pretty good around here! I am going to knock on a few doors here soon to see if i can score a couple more.

They were shaking the tree tops this morning. Lots of hens talking. Nice morning to listen to nature wake up.

 

[Sprytle]

Finally April! Cant wait to get out! I have a pretty good feeling about our team success this year!

 

[old graybeard]

I haven't seen or heard a single bird around my place yet. Thought I would hear some this morning. Maybe I should wear my hearing aids.

 

[old graybeard]

Surprise! Went to pull some cam cards this morning and saw 5 hens in my hayfield. Snuck away and let them feed.

Alright!! this morning I had 20 birds in my hayfield 6 were in full strut!

 

[Sprytle]

Good to hear that! Ive got big toms on all my cams lately. Looking good around here too! Gettin close now boys!

 

[Sprytle]

Holy Moly! Gobblefest this morning!

 

[Sprytle]

Went scouting all Sat. Was pretty much seeing or hearing birds all day at multiple properties. The daybreak spot was really going on with LOTS of different gobblers sounding off with a lot of hen talk. This is where I scored on my bird late in the season last year. Another spot I spotted a group of about a dozen birds with 4 strutting toms. It was a really good day. A lot of birds around to play with this year.

Got a couple of pics this afternoon. I think the 1st one is a different bird. They look good to me. Trying to zoom in on the hooks.
