Are there any recently published scientific reports to support moving turkey season?
There is a lot (as in decades) of research that went into defining the current season. Moving it up just to make hunters happy is not a sound wildlife management strategy.

There is one out dated study I've seen done by George Wright in Ky and Mo. that turkeys should not be hunted before the 15th, not sure if that would be relevant with the northern latitudes???

2 weeks earlier would be just fine with me! The bigshots in Indy forget this state is around 200 miles from north to south! By the time season starts the birds are about done here in the south! You can here some birds gobble the first few days but not everyone can get off work to hunt them days! I personally have not herd a bird in 3 years in Perry county. And that's hunting hard the first 5 days and every weekend! I got to hunt Harrison county the second day of season this year and only herd one bird! Even had a bird walk down a farm road 75 yards off and didn't even look up when I hit the call!
