Ready for turkey season

Post by schnarrfuss »

Is everyone ready for the turkey season coming up in 8 day's here in SW Ontario. Seeing some tom's out strutting and hearing a little gobbling, but not really seeing much. How about everyone else??

Gooing up to the property this weekend for a walk around.

I also have to run my new generator for 5 hours to break it in and give it an initial oil change.

Weapon's ready, however I'm still knockin. :?

I'm finding it difficult to find turkey hunting areas. Seeing lots out there, strutting their stuff for the ladies. Seen a big boy last weekend tail spread and beard to the ground. He was only about 80 yards or so off the road.
