We had our opener today. I got the day off from school and everything just to have it washed away. My dad and I went out for about 2 hours this morning before the rain started to come down to hard and we decided to head back to home to see if it will slow at all. It never did. My next day out will be saturday morning hopefully the weather will be at least a little better for us.

I've had a terrible season. The first two weeks there were no gobbles at all. By the time they got started they were completely call shy. This weekend is the last chance for me. I know where 3 birds are working but ambushing them is tough when they don't come to the call. We'll see what happens.

Didn't score. The birds were roosting between two good ridges but every time I went one way they went another. They schooled me good this year. The problem is the country. It's steep and deep and it's almost impossible to cut them off. I got busted on three different occasions trying to cut them off.

They work up one of the ridges then drop down into a steep valley into private land. If your not on the right ridge your out of luck. So thats it for me, I sure wish I could have scored for the team. At least I was able to call in a couple jakes for my daughter during the youth season. As they say, "theres always next year!"

My brother got his first bird, a jake. My niece got her first bird, also a jake.

Me, I got skunked. Missed a big old bird the very first day with my bow and never had another chance at one. Was constantly having birds hang up on fences. That burns me up. They have no problem going under, over, or around a fence any other time of the year but I start calling and all of a sudden a fence becomes an impenetrable barrier.

I should have taken the shotgun so I could make sure to get one for the team and then took the bow out after that.

Way to go for everyone who scored and good luck for everyone who has season left.
