Good luck all, hopefully we can all find a lonely one.

Didn’t hear a bird this morning and had to be here in court by 9:00. Maybe some of y’all will get one.

Only heard 1 gobble this morning and it was way off. Will be back after them tomorrow.

I put us on the board. 22 lbs 12 oz, 15/16” spurs and little 5.5” beard. How the heck do I post pics? What’s the official process?

Congrats MB. I am no help on the photo posting. I have not even tried since photo bucket went south

I’ll figure it out when I get off work

Congrats Matt!

We were on a promising one this morning and a dog ran through between us barking and shut him up. A little later we had a couple jakes come in. We left and got to another spot and worked one to about 70 yards or so but he had a pile of hens with him and they didn't want to come any closer. Back to work tomorrow but I think I have a decent plan for the last bird sat morning.

Reckon it worked.

This bird didn’t start gobbling until nearly 9 o’clock. Didn’t take long to get him in after I started calling to him. I pulled the trigger at 9:15. He’s the heaviest bird I’ve ever killed at 22 lbs 12 oz on a digital scale. My other scale said 23 lbs 4 oz but I think that was a little high. He had 15/16” spurs on both sides and I got one strand of beard to 5.5”. Doesn’t appear to have beard rot. Just don’t have much there. Tickled to start the season off right. Was a great hunt.

Congratulations Mbrock. I plan on going in the morning. I've got a couple that are coming out in my food plot and I'm gonna ambush them with my bow.

Thanks guys. Go get em tomorrow. I'll be back out there as long as I can. Gonna try out a new place.

Heck yeah Mbrock! Good luck this weekend guys. I'm stuck at work til Monday...miserable.

Heard two. One was on fire but he henned up real good about 8:00 and lost interest. I had to go.

I didn't hear anything this morning but I did see five hens. One of them had about a seven inch beard. She almost got shot before I realized it was a hen.

Silence again this morning. Changing counties for the weekend

We’ve got a bearded hen on our place too.

Didn't see or hear anything this afternoon. Looks like rain for the next few days and then I have to go back to work. Maybe I'll get one next week.

Supposed to be a break in the rain in the AM. Gonna try once again.

Good luck guys. I heard one yesterday morning, got after him and he was across a big creek. While trying to find a route to approach him from the other side of the creek I ran into a couple of older gentlemen (early 70’s) in my club that informed me I had been piddlin on the adjoining club! They thought it was hilarious. This is my first year in the club and I didn’t even know that I was anywhere close to a property line.
Anyhow, I’m back this morning and maybe I’ll find one on our property this morning.

I did find 2 arrowheads in a food plot on the adjoining club.
