Truck is packed and checking my son out at noon tomorrow heading to the camp. Weather doesn’t look good Saturday morning but we are both fired up Sunday ought to be a fine morning. Is it just me or do any of y’all get more excited about youth than opening day of regular season? Good luck everybody and safe travels!!!

Best of luck!!

I’m pretty excited. My youngest daughter will be on her first hunt. Out of 3 girls, she’s the only one to show an interest in hanging out with me over momma. Hopefully we can get her on one.

Good luck

My oldest is going on his first, behind the gun. I just hope I do everything right. Maybe get to take his cousin which will be on the gun first. Gonna be a big two days.. good luck

Good luck to the utes. Post up some pics

My 7yo daughter has said she wants to go. I have the .410 ready to go, put a ground blind up 2 days ago (I hate those things but it's the only chance I will have with her). Wish us luck. My 12 yo son has a baseball game Saturday at 10 am, he has to be there early so he can't go. My daughter and I will get there about the time the game starts.

I listened this morning and heard zero gobbles, maybe tomorrow will be better.

We’re going. Running errands today, going down after school, we hope to roost one this evening

Dang baseball and math competition. We will make it next year though. Good luck to the others.

I don't like special seasons and feel like paying members of clubs and private places should get to hunt before any kid does. So we always wait to hunt until the season opens for everyone and let others have first choice of areas etc. Youth season is the entire season! Good luck to any who get out there this weekend though, take a thermacell and permetherin makes kids sit much more still when they are not getting eaten by bugs.

Good luck to the young hunter’s hope to see a pile of pics

GomerJr wants to go....he's got baseball all morning tomorrow though, and we're supposed to help do some setup stuff at church Sat afternoon for a Palm Sunday event we're doing, so not sure how much time we're gonna get in the woods.

For me it is nice to be able to put all the focus on the youth. Most of them are not going to hunt in bad weather, sit for hours being still or crawl up on a turkey. They often move at the worst time, don't see the gobbler or when they do it is too late. When it comes together it is awesome!!!!

This chit every year. Just leave it alone, holy crap dude.

If knowed a feller was tryin to kill his youngan a turkey..i wouldnt hunt BECAUSE of that…dang a feller an his money..ill hunt public til the little fell kills him one..i dont need a dang private land no way..

Looks like I’m takin two with me to the CLUB. His dad is my best friend and has been in the club just as long as me! He promised one son to fish the next tournament so the oldest will be with me.. brings back some great memories..

I love it, my little boy is only 6mo old..so hes a little fat mush ball…but we are patient🤠

Good luck to all the youth hunters!

I bet you’re a lot of fun at parties

Nah it's an annual tradition.

Do not party anymore. Was pretty good at it back in the day though!!!

I’ve been getting stuff loaded up and ready to go. As soon as the wife gets home from school me and my oldest are headed north. Hopefully the locals have left at least one bird for me. I think the season for the local outlaws came in about two weeks ago

Just know when to shut up and not ruin the freaking youth thread every year. Keep you incoherent anti hunting miserable takes to yourself.

It’s a pretty common trend for him to disagree with everyone and everything that is said.

Good luck to youths!! Just waiting for someone to put a pic on FB of their 3yo with a double bearded bird.
I’m gonna check the weather and maybe go listen. If not, I’ll go Sunday morning before church.

My oldest turned 15 in January, so this will be his last youth hunt.

Yep.

Good luck Joe, you gonna give him the reigns and sit in the backseat

Yeah I’ll just be watchin and cluckin lol

Going with a buddy and his son in the morning. I’ve watched his kid knock one down the last two youth weekends in a row and he had five strutters in his pasture this morning so I’m looking forward to seeing another one die.

What time y’all gonna be listening?!

🤣🤣🤣

They gobbled at 6:18 FYI 🦃

My first gobble was 6:17. I was just listening for tomorrow

Buddy heard 5 this morning first one gobbled at 6:08
