Mike you should have no problem at Tracy's finding birds. Tell him to put you on ole paintbrush, but I'm sure he will    :)   There's not a whole lot of birds here, and those that are here are pressured pretty good, so I don't get too excited for turkeys. But I hope to be haulin bait for bears   :)

Sounds good steadman and Tracy has told me about paintbrush. We have been talking about a hunt for years now and I am real excited to get to do it. I Sinewed a new osage bow just for this spring.

I did not see very many turkeys during my fall hunt this year.  Actually, didn't see a single one while in the stand.  I have seen them walking in and out of my set ups though.

I've never hunted them with the trad bow before, so hopefully this is my year.  I'm going to run some trail cams at a different farm this year, and  hopefully I pick up some turkeys in the area.

Bill - Typically the dominant bird is the only one that will strutt this time of year. This bird may be the domninat bird, however I don't see any spurrs. Perhaps he has is bluff in.

Man Mike I can't wait     :bigsmyl:     about time we get this done.     :archer2:    

The turkeys gobble and strut all year around here, There's just so many anymore it dosen't take much to get them fired up. This is a pass through spot and there's a blind 5yds to the right of these birds.

   

See if I can fire you guys up some!     :D    

   

Which one is dominant here Scott   :dunno:    ;)

Yes, i know it seems weird but you get a warm day in the winter and the toms all start to display and they get very vocal. Several mornings this Dec. they have woke me up from a deep sleep feeding right out the bedroom window. Here's one of my favorite pics of them trying to dry out on the fence after a heavy rainstorm last Fall.
