Outdoor_Guy Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! I'd pull over before looking too long. Keep a journal of where and when you see them. You'll be ready for the season before you know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntn4bucks Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! Hello Jeff, The first step to recovery is admitting your addiction. I am a turkaholic too. It's been 9 long months since my last turkey harvest. I have battled my addiction for 9 months now but I feel a setback coming March 15th.

Rhino Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! I guess I fall into that catagory too. All I can say is I'm glad I don't have to make a choice between spring turkey hunting and bowhunting for deer. Turkey hunting would win out hands down.

Covehnter Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! The fevers has been easing over me now for a month or so . . . . but for me. . . . gobbling turkeys never stray far from mind, i just have to engulf myself in pursuing other birds to overcome the addiction until the time is reasonably close.

woodsman2230 Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! Ya the time is going to slow...but it does every year. It seems like as soon as christmas is over I fell that turkey season is right around the corner....but its still a good 5 months away. I get all ready to go then have to wait months before I get a chance to get out there on some birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoyt03 Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! I try to pass the time by doing some very early scouting just trying to see some birds and find a general location. Can't wait for spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elnor Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! I've been going through gear, getting my guns ready, checking chokes, stocking up on shells, you name it.

Guest CokerColaBear Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Re: Fever!!!! I've only been turkey hunting once and that was year's back, i'm normally just after the deer. I went duck hunting jan 20th and shot two, my very first ones, theywere a set of Mallards at that!! Going turkey hunting in the spring and hopefully I will get just as addicted to that as I am deer hunting!! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
