Turkeygirl Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 If it wasn't for tracks, droppings, and hearing a couple gobbles a few days ago, I'd think the gobblers had left the area....They are tight lip...dunno if they are recovering from the cold and wind and rain we had the last few days....Nice calm warm night tonight, hope something happens tomorrow AM. What are the rest of you seeing/hearing? Good luck to all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Hope you aren't going to jump the gun and hunt tomorrow?:jaw: Things have been very quiet around here. I think the local kids got the birds shook up last weekend. I will be traveling to my parents in Hamilton to hunt if I'm feeling better.

RTF Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Saw 6 gobblers last night scouting. Hopefully opening morning (Saturday) they will be gobbling again. On opening day of youth season they wouldn't shut up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Archer 01 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 I have been hearing a lot of gobblers when I go out I just have not been seeing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybear Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Been seeing plenty but they've been REALLY quiet lately around here. Rain forcasted for tomorrow so I'm not expecting gobbles to be echoing through the hills. Good luck to all heading out in the morning and be safe.

Turkeygirl Posted April 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 No Ranger,lol. I slept in rather than go listen for gobbles:-p Will be out tonight, hoping to roost one. Def. not hunting state land this weekend. Will just set-up where I've seen the sign. Sunday is going to be rainy but I'm going to sit by that field all morning if I have to!

western NY bowhunter Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 I have been hearing a lot of gobblers when I go out I just have not been seeing them. Me too. I've been up at the crack of dawn every morning for two weeks straight and have heard plenty of gobbling each time out. They can't stand my trusty Primos old crow call and just have to answer it. For some reason they do seem to be less visible this year though, which is fine by me. The less people that sees them the better. All that matters is that I know that they're there. This morning there were two just gobblers hammering back and forth to each other across the road. Think I'll try for one of them in the morning. It'll be a long, sleepless night tonight. Man, I can't wait for that 4:00 wake up call!!! Good luck tomorrow NY.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Looks like it is going to be one of the warmest opening days I can remember. Be sure to have your bug spray. The blackflies will be out in force Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
