Dont have the answers to the questions asked,, but i hunt south bama national forest and the last 3 seasons have been awesome for hearing numbers of gobblers and for how many jakes and hens im seeing throughout the broad area i hunt.. This year definitely being one of the better for jake numbers and adult gobblers being heard and taken.. And I can promise there is no shortage of hunters here.. And still having a 5 bird limit.. I can honestly say through my observations that we have definitely had great hatches the last 2 years with turkey numbers up more than 10 years ago.. Dont care what any biologist says about this area.. This is from my own footwork and observations..and i put in ALOT OF TIME on the national forest
