Has anyone been out to see if there talking yet? Planning on going out Friday morning to my spot to have a listen.

I hauled some stuff to the dump over behind Castle High school yesterday and a big tom was on full display in a field trying to entice the ladies.. I have seen as many as 30 birds in that field before but this time he was all there by his lonesome self.
Two weeks from today Kentucky opens.. party
Illinois just had their youth weekend and a friend of mine had two sons that killed a bird each. They responded very well to calls.

I usually can hear them out the back door in the mornings, haven't heard anything yet. I'll be going out Saturday for a bit to see if they're making any noise. I was in the Lawrenceburg area this past Friday morning, saw probably 30-40 in various fields, a few toms were on display as well.

They have been strutting and gobbling for about a month now. Usually the first week of March they start around my place.

Had one strutting in my front yard this morning. I assume he gobbled on the roost at least

The Toms are gobbling a lot right now in Kentucky every morning.

I'm hoping to do a little turkey scouting this weekend.

Gobbled good the last couple mornings here. Tuesday morning was a bust. Monday was pretty good. All on the roost. Haven't seen any gobblers that didn't have hens with them more than 30 minutes of hitting the ground.
Talked to about 8 people that had no luck in Kentucky last weekend. All of them said the birds were quiet after hitting the ground.

Went out tonight to scout and all I seen was a group of four punk jakes. They couldn't even get along with each other. They were chasing each other around, pulling each others feathers, and wing beating one another. Entertaining to watch anyhow. Didn't hear any sound off from the roost either.

We did hear some gobbles on the roost last Saturday morning in two different spots. I saw one this morning strutting with 4 hens and he never gobbled once.

Just got back in from a morning scout. Didn't see any birds. Checked my trail cam that has been by my blind for a week now. 444 pics, just one hen turkey. I don't usually hunt out of a blind but I want to take my bow this year so I do plan on hunting out of my blind with the bow a little. Hope things change a little out my way. Last year was the best year as far as turkey population and I was real hopeful for this year but so far, things are slow.
