Stay safe!

Good luck with the newbie Bowbo!

Thanks... gona need it!
Any updates from today's hunters?
How'd it go?

guided a friend this morning in Parke county, had one strutter in the field in front of us. No interest in our DSD decoys or calling.

We heard exactly one gobble this morning. Birds hit the ground and shut up.

We are hitting the road at 3:30 in the morning... southeast of Bedford. I sure hope they are in the mood down there for some sweet talkin' and some dancin'!

Keep at it fellas!

Taking my daughter out this am......good luck

Sitting in the woods with my daughter on this beautiful spring morning. They are gobbling all around. Not answering to any calls....yet. In Greene county.

Called in a Jake.. could have killed it with a sling shot!.. I hunt on..

Almost no gobbling in Putnam County this weekend. Heard one bird gobble about 10 or 12 times on the roost on Saturday morning. Never gobbled after flydown. Normally, I hear about 10 or 12 different birds gobbling in this area. Very strange...

killed at 28 pound 34mm spurs and a 11.5 inch beard saturday evening

Same here . Did manage to call in a Jake.. I'll stay at it but winter kill or late spring? Something is up and I can't put my finger on it.

I think its the weather. Saturday morning of youth weekend birds were really talking and not much since. I think about Wed with the warm up should get them going again. h.h.

had a few gobblin on the roost sat am in parke but they got quiet after fly down. saw a tome with 2 hens. they're def not cooperating at my place. hopefully the warm up will help

Well as they say "a blind hog finds an acorn every now and then!" Saturday morning 2 gobbled a few hundred yards away but I chose to stay put. Shortly after daylight 2 hens flew down & into the decoys they come. One didn't stay long but the other yelped her head off...I'm thinking come on boys, I've got the real deal here. Then she went over to the Avian X hen and pecked her..then left. Still no talkers..so I thought I am gonna mess with her and hopefully keep her around so I with my slate I started purring and cutting really aggressively and she starts cutting like crazy and here she comes back purring like crazy and commences to flog my decoy for about 30 seconds. I've seen that on TV but never in person. She was not a happy hen! She had the decoy spinning around like a top. After she slowed down I heard a gobble and then another but alot closer. The hen finally left and I am thinking well, she'll end up taking him with her but low and behold after a few minutes he pops out and at 30 yards I took him. I figure all that commotion got his attention and he had to see what was going on. 22 lbs, 11" beard and some big ole spurs - 37MM. Nicest bird I have ever taken.

^^^^^^sweet.....awesome hunt!

That's a great bird.... and a cool hunt!
Congrats on your best!
