No Sunday hunting except a select few in the fall. They’re still gobbling here and there where they see less pressure. I got a big gobbler last year at the end of May gobbling the whole way back to roost. I hardly called though cause I knew where he was headin
Great work fellas!!! Congrats!!Took my daughters boyfriend out this morning. His first hunt for any animal. Perfect set up, nice bird comes in at 6:15, 25 yards and he misses. I spent the next 15 minutes working a couple other birds that were still hanging around. Get another Tom to come down to us and he squeezed the trigger and all I hear is click. So I grab the 20 gauge I brought and shot it as he was trying to run away. I felt bad but he had 2 opportunities lol
So we then went to the other side of the farm and set up over there. Zero action so at 9am we walked back to where we originally were. Within 20 minutes I was able to get another bird down to us. He was full strut for the last 50 yards. It was awesome. He dropped him and we had a double! Safe to say he is hooked

Nice looking calls! Puts mine to shame. The last three turkeys I’ve killed were called into range with a wingbone. Takes some practice but once you’ve got it down it’s a very unique sound, which I think is what makes it so deadly. Check out Catman he has a video on how to use it.
Northern half of lower Michigan has over the counter licenses available for May 6 to May 31st for public land hunting. A late thaw means the turkey hunting is just getting started up here. Edit: Pricey for an out of state hunt though.
Definitely not scientific but I focus on the mid feathers to notate sub species. In my local Rios, the tips fluctuate a lot depending on local habitat but the mid feathers are always buff.
I have quite a bit in WI. Seems like you find a lot more birds that won’t give you the time of day, but many are still fired up!
Well, I have that exact vise already attached to my drill press. Is that just a vise and two magnets? I guess I need to look into what goes into making a mouth call.
That’s what I wanted to hear, thanks! Just need the weather to
@Bowtie747 same. Wisconsin’s seasons are different than other states, but I typically have a tag or two late May. ThermaCell is a must.
Nice! Congrats on tagging out!! Great work!
Permethrin is a must for sure!! Ticks are everywhere. As for the therma cell, I could not find mine lol.
2 is one and one is none
Are you sayin part of the year you dont have spiders and webs to deal with? You already dont have snakes, gators and hogs. I wouldnt know how to act walkin through woods with no webs.
