BIG_COUNTRY Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 The gobblers are giving their vocal cords a rest for the last couple of days i'm told. Hens are starting to nest, so it should be a little easier to call them ole toms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG_COUNTRY Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Awesome!!! Man..... I've had my tail tucked for the last few days. Our season is over and i ain't got squat! If hens and jakes were legal i could have my limit, but i don't think we've got a gobbler in mississippi. They done killed 'em all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkinslinger Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Well I got my second bird....nice plump jake. I also called a nice gobbler in for my 13 year old son and be danged if he didn't connect on a double bearded bird! Weighed 16 lbs and beards were 8 1/4" & 5 3/4".
