Re: 10 Days of nothing but chasing Bama Birds

Tough luck on the Bama birds. This year has been unusally strange. The first couple days of the season the turkeys gobbled their brains out. Then we got a cool spell and they shut up. I'm talking maybe 1 or 2 gobbles on the roost and then silence. I hunt quite a bit North of Choccolocco but last week was a tough one. The bird I killed last week gobbled maybe 6-8 times on the roost and once on the ground. Better luck next time.

tuff, I hunt in pike, bullock counties and we got a few but they haven't been gobbling much. like huntn4bucks said first couple of days they gobbled like crazy then that cold weather shut'em up. I killed one the first day and called another up but he came to my right and my great uncle wouldn't shoot him, he wanted me to kill'em, but he wouldn't come around far enough (he had a couple hens with him and they were wanting to go the other way and you know he is going to follow them)

My aunt killed early this morning before the weather got bad. My uncle and my cousin has both killed one so that makes four We've killed this year.

Well, you did pick one of the worst WMA's in Alabama to chase birds on.

Not a huge population and some of the roughest country in the state.

Shoot me a PM and I'll give you some tips on AL's WMA's. My largest bird ever came off one and I've been on birds each day I've hunted them this year.
