Post by swiftfox »

Yep ... they are yarded all together in large flocks ... everywhere I go ... largest flock was 45 ... many small flocks of 15 to 20 .... should be good in the spring !

Had several longbeards cross the road in front of me the other day. Very close to where I hunt, too! :twisted:

I'm usually seeing a bunch. But in the last 2-3 weeks I don't think I've seen any. :?

Mike, a little slow on the gas pedal are we? :lol: :lol:

I live in Ohio, saw a group of about 5 along the edge of the woods in a harvested corn field. I saw some nice turkey tracks last week while I was deer hunting.

I plan to spring hunt for turkey. First try at it.

Spotted a few last week fairly deep in the bush, a couple weeks before that I found an area about the size of an acre trampled flat from the things.. I must have been to noisy that day, never got to see one..

I was out on the farm in Uxbridge last week and saw four of them. Kind of concerned me as there are normally more like 10-12 turkeys. I think the coons were hard on them this year.
