Things are just starting to green-up a bit around here and that always makes my thoughts turn to turkeys. Our new hunting grounds looks like prime turkey habitat including a 1/2 mile stretch of hardwood creek bottom with huge oaks for roosting. We have not seen many turkeys in the few short months we have had the place, however sometimes they will start showing up when they scatter into their mating season pattern. (fingers crossed!) Hopefully the hottest part of the mating season will coincide with the hunting season this year - that is not always the case.

Let me know what weekends you’re open and maybe we can work something out for y’all to head south!

Turkey season starts March 20 here in SC. I am ready. Killed a turkey last year at my parents place. I lived in those woods for 20 years with no signs of Turkey. While I was living in Texas they told me they were seeing turkeys. I moved back last year and decided to give it a try. Turns out they were right. Saw 8 Jake's last year at my buddies place. Should be a good year.

Really bummed, after not seeing many birds this fall I was concerned, but our birds tend to move to either the Pecan Bayou or Jim Ned bottoms during the fall, so it’s not uncommon to see fewer birds. But I spent the weekend here and didnt hear a single bird and only found 1 set of tracks. Going to be tough hunting.
We had a huge hail storm late spring with tennis to baseball sized hail, that’s the only thing I can figure has decimated our normally stable and healthy turkey population
