Home Forums Birds & Dogs Turkey Hunting My shortest season ever.........

It's a two-edged sword.

Had a great 2 (short) days. But now its a looooooooong time til turkey season again.

First (opening) day at 6:50 AM

181/2 lbs
9 3/4" beard
1 3/8" & 1 3/8" spurs




Second day at 6:10 AM

17 1/2 lbs
8 1/2" bearsd
1" &1 1/8" spurs

Nice, those were quick hunts for sure

Nicely done! Sounds short but fun. You'll have to get a license in another state.

Back when OK limit was 2, I bagged out opening day in about 30 seconds after flydown!
One flew down and stopped about 30 yards away. The second tom saw the first one flopping and came to investigate!
BANG!
BANG!
Season done!

Kinda spoils the season, but sure is a sense of satisfaction!

NOW! Break out the camera and go get some snapshots!

:Thumbs Up:

We have a 2 bird limit here. But it's only one per day, so...........

But, there have been times............both here and out of state..........that a bang-bang double would have been possible. If it were legal, I'd probably do it once just to have done it. But it WOULD kinda spoil the rest of the season.

Colorado is a 1 bird state. Must be nice to have a 2 or 3 bird limit.

Congrats, Yoder! That was a quick season for you! I'm down below the state line but they've been quiet once they fly down.

Saturday's bird gobbled one time just as soon as his feet hit the ground. Monday's bird did not gobble on the ground.

Good luck down there !!!

You sure you let his feet hit the ground ?

I hunted Nebraska one year. I had a flock of about 50 come by me in a river bottom. I had 3 tags and believe I could have filled all 3 with one shot. But I waited for them to separate so I only got 2. Filled my last tag the next day. That place was covered up with birds.

Congrats, Nice Birds.

Well done.

Probably the gobblers he had on his back porch.

Thanks fellers !!!

Hey, Luther !!!!! You back out from under your slimy rock ???

I was starting to worry about you. I missed you. Anyways.............thanks for the (I'm sure) kind words. Hope your season's been going well.

Nice going Yoder! Congrats on a couple of nice birds!

Thank you, sir.

Here's a pm I got I won't mention any names.

"Wonder if those are the birds he had coming up to his back sliding glass door of his house? Remember when he posted the pics of the gobbler at his back door looking for a handout?"

THRE'S our little troll !!!!!!!

I really HAVE missed you !!!

Congratulations? Personally I don’t think I’d have tagged out that quickly unless I had some ground in another state to hunt. I enjoy it too much. Maybe you can guide/call for some folks?
