Mild winter and early spring should add up to more fawn's and bigger bucks. We are couple to three weeks early on spring green up here in my area. Of course things could change ??, but extended forecasts suggest continued above normal temps. On the down side turkey season may not be the best as I am already seeing toms courting females so I expect a lot of early breeding.

If the extended forecast stays as dry as some are saying the low stress winter and such will set them up good for the spring and summer...but dry conditions could have adverse affects as well. We will see.

Yeah, turkey season may be a problem. Last I saw was above average temps for March - May.

Our past winter wasn't so mild, here in Central Kentucky. We had two huge snow storms totaling about 48"+, with some very cold weather. At this date we're also mild (mid-70*) but it's raining about every other day, some trees are just now showing signs of leafing out, but the grass is not yet growing. Just hope we don't have a rainy/stormy Spring or a late April/May freeze, as this would "Zap" mast crops like Oaks, Hickory, etc.

Yeah we are already seeing a few gobblers strutting and following a few hens around our place.
