That surprises me you aren’t even hearing a gobble in there. Good luck the rest of the season.

What park are you hunting? Morgan Monroe That’s where my property backs up to and I didn’t hear a single gobble yesterday. Today- also no gobbling in the morning before sunup but had one gobbling shortly after and again around 930. MM has a lot of birds just need to be at the right place right time

We had one gobbling in some big pines next to the food plot but up close to the road. We finally saw him in the big pines but it was too far to shoot.
He came part way out into the food plot at 45 yards but was in behind a some dead tree branches. No shot. He would not fully commit to the food plot snd went back in the pines.
Two close calls today ..

I had a really good morning despite hearing zero gobbling. I got to hunt a spot I didn't expect to be able to and got to check my cams. This spot looks very promising. Had a shouting match with a hen which was a great learning lesson. Back at it hopefully in the same spot tomorrow morning.

MM has a lot of birds just need to be at the right place right time I’m going to slip into the spot where I kicked them all up and see if a couple decoys don’t bring them around

He gobbled just out of range because he could see her then left gobbling.

Freeze warnings here tonight and tomorrow night. Deadeer, funny how your back is acting up now AFTER your short vacation while you left the kiddo at Grandmas. LOL Coming to realize now... Root cause of sore back is a brewing kidney stone! 🙄 I am well versed in them and have meds on hand when one rears its ugly face. 😡 Pains come and go, so I get to enjoy the ride, again... hoping it's short lived.

Lol. I used that one last year. Seriously though, I'm done. I'm working tomorrow until Sunday so my season is done...until Monday. Had one about 70 yards today. Crow cawed and he gobbled. I called and nothing. Hawk screamed and he gobbled. I called and nothing. Squirrel farted and he gobbled. I called and nothing. Told Duff to go fishing tomorrow. It's only going to get better as the season goes on. They aren't ready yet

Kidney stones are ROUGH! Start hammering lemon juice and as much water as you can.

Kidney stones are ROUGH! Start hammering lemon juice and as much water as you can. I sip some apple cider vinegar. This is a hereditary issue. Every Male on my dads side is blessed with these. We've all tried everything under the sun, and pretty much realize nothing helps it. Just for fun, I laid off the pain med to see how bad it is. Well, OW OW OW OW OW OW!!! I will see how long I can tolerate it while I sleep.
