Looks like I am first one out. I finally heard a turkey gobble on the roost yesterday, and I'm gonna try to end the season this morning. The safest play would be to set up.on a field 250 yds away from him and try to call him into it. He has hens and they will probably drag him into it eventually anyway.
But that would be no fun. I'm gonna try to set up 75 yards away from it and try to get him to fly down in gun range. If he gets by, it's likely over. I will either post his picture soon or I will sulk away and nobody will hear from me. Good luck to everyone

Everything went perfectly at first. I got set up without spooking him and could see him in the tree at 80 yards when it got light. He gobbled several times and they all flew down early. Then Murphy's law took over. He came to 25 yds, but I couldn't shoot without killing a hen. They all managed to somehow walk around me without me being able to see them, and a hen was looking hard for me. There were all sorts of openings where I could have shot him, but he hurried through every one of them and always stopped behind something. He finally got to the last place I could shot, so I raised up as high as I could and shot him as he made the last step to go out of sight. Then they all flew off.  . No sign that I hit him, so maybe he will be ok
