Won't be long now.. Gobble gobble BOOM

[BIG FOX]

Getting close to being game time. I have a hunt planned with my younger son Austin this year to try and get him his first turkey. Pretty exciting times. We were so close with Stoner last year but as turkeys do, he got the best of us. I hope this is the year we can put it all together..

Good luck everyone..

Back at ya Big and Little Foxes! Looks like the weather is finally going to get nice for the main opener, maybe even for the youth weekend. Seeing plenty of big strutters around here, could be a good season. I'm hoping it's Bartman's turn to have all the jakes this year...

I am hoping to get over there at least one day next week Osprey.. If you and Bart are around we may have to do lunch..

I'll be out in the morning with my son on his very first turkey hunt. We couldn't hunt till we were 12 in NY...my boy is 7! I've been looking forward to this since he was born:) Planning on hitting my usual spots on public land in Worcester County. This is the first year I have not been able to scout so I'll be interested to see what happens. I've had very good luck in these spots for the last four years so I would hope not much has changed. Good luck to all you guys!

Anyone else having any luck getting on the birds?

I talked to one buddy yesterday who hasn't heard a gobble all season! Bartman got one last weekend, although he had one of his normal misadventures and went swimming in the LaBrea mud pits to get it. I'm still seeing birds here almost everyday, and heck, my Dad had four strutters at his bird feeder one afternoon this week!

I'm upset I'm done and can't hunt anymore, but I don't feel so bad about it when the alarm doesn't go off at 3am or I think of all the mosquitoes hatching from these rains...
