I got drawn for the opening 3 days at BO. However, I have a little issue. Couple weeks ago I got a knee redone and my ability to walk around a bunch may be pretty well shot. This surgery was pretty invasive.

I have looked at the different areas allowed to turkey hunt and I would like my area to be some what flat and have some decent roads to navigate around in. 75 I know will be a long shot. I also would like an area that only allows 2 hunters in it. The areas in the 20's don't look too bad.

Does any area ring a bell that I should go after? Walking up and down those north ridges probably won't be possible this year.

Any guidance would be appreciated. I have only hunted 4, 27, 39, 40.

Dont forget you may possess only approved non-toxic shot while in the field there.

It's hard to soar like an eagle when you're flying with a bunch of turkeys.
