I know all you turkey junkies like myself are staring to tune up your calls and  calling ect....we are only a few weeks away from openin day where I hunt on the alabama tennessee line. It's turkey time!!!!! I went scouting this morning! Look what showed up

That will get the blood flowing.  Love those gobbles.

[habujohn]

I liked it.  Were they gobbling on their own or were you doing some calling?  We still have several feet of snow on the ground here in the Yooper so it will be sometime before I get out to scout out the local birds.  Best of luck to all you this spring.

[rwbowman]

Very cool! The whitetail in the treeline is definitely an added bonus!

[rolltidehunter]

Habujohn. They were gobbling on there own. I was not making a peep. It's considered one of the 10th commandments not to call to a bird before opening day!! I don't want him getting the upper hand on me.

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Thanks John, I was beginning to forget what grass looked like LOL!

[Jayrod]

Awesome, I've got some on my trail cams.  Wish you the best, hope you nail one!

cool video, were you just behind some brush? and is that going to be a hunting spot?
Looks like you have some prime real estate.
I know everyone knows this, but that deer knows its not in season right now...

14mpg I was sitting up against a pine tree. I threw some sticks in front of me for more cover.

[Ray Lyon]

Wow, I've still got 3 feet of snow in some fields and for sure in the woods.  Our ten day forecast has one day above 30 degrees, so I don't think we're going to loose much snow cover in that time period.  Our birds are having a tough winter and I'm afraid the turkey hunting might be a little tough compared to what you've got on that video.  Good luck with the birds.

These guys came through my property the other day...gets your blood pumping.

 

 

[rolltidehunter]

That looks great joe! That's snow needs to melt

[Tall Paul]

Great footage!  Thanks for posting RTH!  Sounded like they started to putt there at the very end of the video?

[rolltidehunter]

Paul there was a group of deer than was behind me stomping a bit.  Once the turkeys saw the nervous deer the putted a bit. They settled down and moved over the hill I watched them another 30 min behind me strutting the whole time
