  7. I know that some parts of the state had a great season. But, KY overall did not do as good as the past 6 years. The is the lowest the total harvest has been in a long time. A couple reasons: bad hatch two years ago and very nasty weather opening weekend and week. The whole state had snow and freezing rain opening weekend. Did people still harvest, YES. But, those people who would have harvested or hunted didn't. So, I think the weather kept many hunters indoors the first week. Also, gobblers were firing it up two weeks before the KY youth weekend. And, the youth weekend statewide was awesome. After that, the season went downhill for many people. It was a tough season, I managed one gobbler after hunting 8 days in a row. I just hope all this early spring rain subsides and we are able to have a nice hatch for '08 '09.
  8. Well, KY season is over. This was THE toughest season I have ever hunted my entire life. KY total harvest results down big time from last year. Actually the total is the lowest it has been in many many years. Congrats to all those KY hunters...it was one tough season.
  9. Finally got me one on the Blue Grass Army Depot Quota Hunt. He was 1 of 7 longbeards.....an amazing hunt.

  11. Re: KY Youth Scores!!! (pic and vid) [ QUOTE ] awesome footage! congrats to you for getting the hunt on video. was that your first hunt on on video? [/ QUOTE ] No this wasn't my first time videoing. The hunt went so quick that I was caught off guard and really didn't have a good spot to shoot film from, i.e. (blind material in the way). I could of had a better angle. I started filming hunts years ago. But not all the time. Last year we decided to take the video camera with us into the woods every time we went. So, my partner and I bought two Sony DVD video cams, tripods, batteries, etc. At the end of the 2006 year, we had coyote hunts, waterfowl hunts, dove hunts, deer hunts, and turkey hunts. I put them all together and made a season DVD. This year we are starting out with just a Spring turkey DVD only. We had a blast making the '06 DVD, I am sure the '07 will be just as fun.
  12. Let me begin by saying the turkeys are READY in KY! It was unseasonably cold this past week. It actually snowed here yesterday, the day before the KY Youth Hunt weekend. But, a little cold weather doesn't stop real turkey hunters. My friend had been seeing and hearing a ton of turkeys on a farm we hunt. So, we decided to take his nephew hunting during this youth hunt weekend to give him a nice head start filling his tag. I came along to film the hunt. The snow had came and gone and the sky was clear at 6:30 this morning. Stars everywhere: a blue bird sky morning was on the way. Daylight was starting to break and we starting hearing distant gobbles. Then we heard a gobble about 300 yards away coming from a wooded drain opening up to a field. After a few more gobbles, we knew we had better be git'n it. So, we closed the gap to about 100 yards and pitched the blind. We heard one more gobble, this time, the bird was on the ground. So, we stuck the dekes in the cold, frosty ground and ran for the blind. No sooner than I got my video camera on my tripod, we spotted him in the field about 80 yards out. Then, another one stepped out of the woods. We had two toms running directly to our setup. They never stopped, never strutted, never gobbled on the way. They just ran an 80 yards dash in 1.5 seconds. They brushed up against ole Pretty Boy and gave him a nice wack wack and mule kick. They strutted around the decoys and put on a show. I had the toms in perfect frame on my video camera so I gave the little guy the green light to shoot. He squeezes the trigger and lets one of the toms fall to his modified choked 1100 at 7:00am. This guy is one great outdoorsman. He kept his nerves unexposed and made sure his cheek was down on the stock. We stepped off 12 yards to the scene of the crime. Amazing. These birds were extremely close and had no idea we were in the world. The aid of the blind and the full strut decoy made everything work for the young hunter. This made three for three for him and needless to say...he is becomming a great turkey hunter. Note: these birds came in without any type of calling. We never locator called them or hen called them. We were fixing to start calling right after they gobbled on the ground but they saw the full strut decoy first and strarted running in...not walking or fast paced skipping...I mean absolute running. To all those who are skeptical of the Carry-Lite Pretty Boy or Primos B-Mobile full strut decoys.......try them, just plain try them before you question them. Or borrow one if you have to. We have had so many gobblers come in to taxidermy full strutted toms anf full strut decoys that we never leave home without one.

  13. Re: NEw gun want pattern(super black eagle 2) I just bought a Super Black Eagle 2 all black 24 inch barrel. I shoot a Primos Jelly Head .660 and Nitro H51013 4x5x7 HeviShot. Patterns are amazing. People do get more than I do, but I got 245 pellets inside a 10 inch circle at 40 yards. Gud enuf fer me.
  14. Re: MY ANNUAL SALUTE TO OUR SLIGH ADVERSARY Say 'ello to my 'ittle friend. (little being ironic because I shoot a 3.5 inch Nitro)
  15. Re: MY ANNUAL SALUTE TO OUR SLIGH ADVERSARY Sometimes in the Spring you do get the slight upper hand you ole beady-eyed bird. You are like a ghost that can vanish into thin air. God made you fear man and you are very cautious. Sometimes you come in silent and other times you are so in love you gobble every step of the way giving off your location to the whole lower part of the county. You do boast qualities that are unparalleled compared to other game birds. You are King of the Spring. But, sometimes you get a little too hot headed. The mere sight of an intruder jake or gobbler on "your" turf hooking up with "your" hens makes you enraged. You basically run in to my trap looking for a fight. But, you really can't fight a face full of HeviShot now can ya. Yeah, I have seen your kind around here and there and your kind does satisfy the taste buds when barbequed.
  16. Re: Does anybody have the B-Mobile decoy by Primos [ QUOTE ] Pretty boy and Pretty girl (Knight & Hale mfg.) [/ QUOTE ] Many people get this confused. Carry-Lite manufactures the Pretty Boy and Pretty Girl decoys. Harold Knight and David Hale only endorsed the product: its just marketing.
  17. Re: TURKEY TEAM #22 Heard 4 more birds gobbling this morning.
  18. Re: TURKEY TEAM #22 just letting you guys know I heard two toms gobbling Saturday morning in my hunt area. KY season starts April 14
  19. Re: Before & After Pix - 1st Gobbler from 2006 Great way to catch a memory. Very nice.
  20. Re: Repainted Jake deocy (pic) [ QUOTE ] What kind of decoy is that?? [/ QUOTE ] A turkey decoy (sorry, i just had to) It is a Delta Jake decoy. Delta does a great job giving the jake decoy lifelike features on its head like the snood, wattles, caruncles, and dewlap.
