Nice birds. I've been out trying to get one but have had no luck yet. We just got another foot of snow on Thursday here is western Wisconsin and everything is really wet so that has made it pretty interesting.

First year in 9 that I haven't filled my tags here in MO. Will try to get a couple in Kansas next week, we'll see how that goes. Just a series of mishaps and "wrong moves" this year!

With the cool weather we have had here in KS this spring, things are a little behind schedule.

I had more gobbling last weekend than we had the any of the previous hunts, We opened at the beginning of April for bow season, and it goes to the end of May.

I have had a hand in killing 9 this year in fl by either being behind the gun or behind the call. Headed to NC tonight to finish the season up there.
