It is starting to come together a little bit...found gobbler droppings and tracks on the land up behind my house...have yet to see or hear him but only have been up there in them orning once. Pegged one on the state land this AM....he sounded off on the same ridge where I got my bird last year....will have to wait and see if he survives the youth season this weekend. Going to go back out tomorrow morning, probably state land, and monday morning go up behind home here before school.

Well I was at work yesterday and one of our guys got stuck across the river cuz the water was way to high to drive through or swim through so we had to come in from the back side. This is when I saw something that is just not any good. I was walking and looked about 3 feet from me and a hen busted up out of the under brush. Well I looked down to where she was bedded down and sure enough there was eggs. I am pretty sure our Conservation department messed up on setting the dates for the turkey season. Our season started last monday and they have already been hened up for over a month/month and half. So I dont know how the rest of the season is goin to be now.....
