Should really be picking up with the warm weather, hens will start nesting soon; otherwise, hunt the hens.
Its always archery season. >>>---------->

Hoping so. Yesterday the 3 toms had 5+ hens with em. That flock is significantly smaller than it was a week ago when it was pushing 20 birds

Saw two toms strutting after a brush fire on Saturday. Only ones I've seen so far since the snow melted. They had four hens with them.

Get this...my cousin calls me tonight around 8 and says you're never gonna believe this. His mom calls him from his room and says there's a turkey next to my car in the driveway. So he goes to check it out, looks out the window and sees a giant Tom full strut beating up his mothers car!!  :o He saw his reflection in the car and thought it was another Tom. The car is all scratched up. He went outside and spooked him down in the woods behind his house. He's taking his girlfriend back there in the morning to try and kill him. We'll see.

It's to bad our attendance here is so low here nowadays. Would have been nice to see more participation. Never even weighed my jake, had a good beard for a jake though.

Just shy of 5", maybe 5 pulled tight. It was 90* out and I was trying to get him cleaned up pretty quick. Forgot about checking the weight until I was working on taking the fan off, didn't bother at that point. Seemed fairly average for around here, probably 15-16lbs. Fan is in the freezer, still have to stake it to cardboard and salt it. Considering using this one to hunt with, but it'll most likely just get pinned up somewhere. I'm smoking another batch of venison tomorrow, so I'm going to try to smoke a breast and see how it comes out.
