Commit and go for it. Have found great reward in getting close and not scoring even it was the same result all season.

Good luck Ken! I'm going into my 4th season chasing turkeys with trad bows! Maybe this year i'll connect! It's tough hunting them without a blind but I find it more fun and challenging!

I had to stop the car for a pair of turkeys on my road this morning on the way to work. I looked towards the cornfield they were heading to & it looked like a turkey convention!  One big boy was in full strut, he looked mighty healthy.

Scharms, they must have migrated to your area from  down here. Been sitting in cold rainy windy weather and they ain't a bit interested in breeding on my farm.    :goldtooth:

Hi Bro,
Is that mountain still above water? We've had two tornados real close in the past three days. My land I'd pretty much under h2o. Wish you luck Ken.

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.
