    Turkeys were silent this morning!

    We are in Coleman for the youth opener. Not a single gobble this morning. Anyone else having a challenge with birds calling with this N wind, or is it just us?

      Thanks for the report. We are thinking about going to menard tomorrow. Forecast looks windy. Hope the northern didn't shut then down.

        Yes, they've been a challenge for us in Kimble county. Went out there earlier in the week and never heard a gobble. Yesterday we called for an hour before finally hearing a gobble about 200 yards off. Got set up real quick and had a pair of gobblers working their way to us. Last gobble sounded maybe 75 yards off then they went completely silent and never showed up. Later in the day we found some hens. Guess the gobblers are "henned up" as they say. We've also had 30+ mph winds all week so lots of things working against us.

            Good to see some positive reports. Manger to catch a possum in the coon cuff, dispatched that ugly sucker!

            Going to eat lunch, reset the coon cuff and see what we can stir mid afternoon

            Turkey sign all over the place, just not hearing them like we usually do, but I've never hunted this early in the season, so there's that

                  Had them just out of bow range. Boom stick'n manana. These birds didn't start sounding off till about 09:00.
