Rhino Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Good to hear the hunters in Kansas did good Tim. The timing of the Kansas hunt & paying my taxes on time this year was a problem for me. As for turkey hunting...been a great year for me so far. Killed my 1st MS bird on opening morning (3/15). Called a double beard in for a young rookie in MS too. Weird, tough season in MS but I managed to get on the right birds on back to back mornings (4/9 & 4/10) and bag my 2nd & 3rd MS gobblers & limit out in MS. Killed my 1st MO gobbler on 4/19 and called in an old bird for a young rookie hunter in MO too on 4/23. Took a short break and I'm back in MO trying to get my 2nd bird now. Weather has been pitiful the past 2 mornings here. Looks like I'll have to play guide for another hunter a few days later this week. Links to the stories of my successful hunts so far this spring are here. Hope to have another one soon! http://forums.realtree.com/forum/general-discussion/turkey-hunting/2054690-early-season-tough-but-some-success http://forums.realtree.com/forum/general-discussion/turkey-hunting/2054764-2-gobblers-in-3-days http://forums.realtree.com/forum/general-discussion/turkey-hunting/2054892-great-opening-week-to-mo-season Good luck to you on your opener & the rest of your spring turkey season Tim.

Strut10 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Our season just came in yesterday and the gobblers were being ignorant. Last weekend was our youth season and my daughter hammered her very first bird. http://forums.realtree.com/forum/general-discussion/turkey-hunting/2054877-pickle-shoots-and-scores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Killed my 2nd MO gobbler today at 12:05...9 1/4" beard, 1" spurs. That limits me out for this year. Full story to come later with pics. Short version is he was the 3rd bird I worked today. 1st was a group of ~5 gobblers roosted close together that all went the wrong way. 2nd was one that forced me to set up immediately, then was rude & came up inside 20 yards on the other side of a blown down treetop. Got on the 3rd after he answered my crow call. Came in gobbling & drumming with a buddy. Long but exciting and successful day of turkey hunting. Get 1 day to rest before I put on my guide hat for a business associate Wednesday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike.jmp Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Birds were fairly-lockjawed this morning, until almost 7am. Had one on the hillside west of the logging road I was on. When he came down, he became a ghost, never heard another gobble all day, think the cool-snap we had here in Missouri put them off a little, but always tomorrow.

OKstate Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 I got a decent Rio here in OK on a pretty short hunt. We pulled up, called a little from the truck, and the gobbles started about 75 yards away. The bird was working the edge of a wheat field, so I snuck around to the middle of the field and slipped a hen out in front.... took about 10 minutes for him to work his way to me, but came straight to the decoy. Looking forward to enjoying the spoils of the hunt this weekend when we get the smoker out. Good Luck to everyone else!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adjam5 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 NY's season starts way too late. Opens May 1st. Has been raining around here since Sunday. My son Joe is up at camp now trying to nail a gobbler. Good Luck everyone and hunt safe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
