I have heard a couple long beards and seen them. Yet, they are not as vocal yet, are you finding this to be the case in your areas. I am sure a week or two from now they herd a lot more.

Shoot Straight!

Glou county here & today seemed like new birds. I heard a ton of gobbling & even came apon a great fight with about 9 toms in three different groups.

 

[telefante]

On Monday I heard a huge gobbler fight involving three Toma and a gaggle of hens cackeling and purring. Fighting purrs going on throughout the fracas. It lasted for a few minutes then - it seems - the main flock walked off in one direction with a gobbler yodeling and two other single birds gobbled off in two other directions. These are the only birds that I have encountered - a single flock of about 12 - and they weren't in that country when I went back in there yesterday....

Will, I saw a nice longbeard down the road from you, on 206. He had a 7"-8" beard on him. He was strutting along a fence line near the road.

South or North? I bet South right? Was it along some corn fields? Hey, looking to head to the farmers shoot on the 19th, you want to go?

Shoot Straight!

Thanks guys for the info. It is as I had thought that they might be henned up or the weather has something to do with it. Either way I am sure there will be some birds put down this week[up]

But I am sure that by mid B week and on they will be sounding off nice and load

Just got off the phone. owner of a 12 acre spot I have says at least 30-40 birds (more than half are jakes and gobblers) are roosting in the same trees every night and walking the same path to the nearby fields every morning for the last 2 months. Monday morning should be good[up]....
