niagarasteelheader Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Hasn't anyone else gotten a bird this year?? I've been part of 3 successful hunts so far but am disappointed theres not more turkey hunting pics/discussion going on! Opening day I called in a bird for my buddy, it was only a jake but still his first ever bird. 13lbs 5 1/2 beard nubs for spurs. Then my old man and I got a pair of toms, 19lbs 13oz 10.5 beard 7/8 spurs, and 16lbs 10oz 10 beard 3/4 spurs. Of course my buddy has the pic's on his camera, and I managed to forget mine the day we got shooting, but somebody else has had to do something!! I've got drive way pic's and feet and beard pic's but not exactly as pretty as in the woods pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishkid Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Unfortunately you may be on your own. I always seem to find the perfect times of year for my life to get very very busy. Like turkey opening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bones Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Thanks for the report niagarasteelheader, congrats on your success.Post any pics you have. I'd post a report if I had anything good to say. lol.Very little activity in the only property I hunt, it's time to start looking for new places, easier said then done .

Dan Andrews Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 We heard them for the first 3 days but the gobbling has stopped already and the birds have gone solo. I can't get them to come in anyhow. Decoys nor calling seems to fizz them but a cold front is coming in so maybe that will get them active again. I know I'm not going into the grass again; ticks are horrible. I'll be confined to early morning or 5-7pm hunts only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
