This will be my fourth spring turkey hunting, and I get more addicted to the sport each year. After two years of calling in birds, and having something go wrong at the last second every time one got close enough to shoot, I managed to bag my first spring bird during the opening week of the season last year.
I was lucky enough to be able to take a week off from school and spend the mornings chasing gobblers all around the farm I hunt in Northern Virginia. I don't think I will be lucky enough to hunt for a whole week this year, but at least I will get to hunt opening day. My friend who owns the farm said he saw some birds last weekend, so hopefully I'll get to at least hear some birds gobbling!Hopefully I'll have some more turkey stories to post by next weekend, but for now I need to get back to schoolwork and applying for jobs. In the meantime, check out my cousin Matt's blog at BrightIdeaBlog.com and read some of his information on turkey hunting. (By the way, I need to give a big shout out to Matt for introducing me to blogging.)
Yay you finally have a blog! With the start of turkey season, maybe you can call the birds outside now?
ReplyDeleteWarning: blogging about hunting can be just as addicting as hunting itself.
ReplyDeleteI really like the name of the blog and tagline and am excited to see what you do with it. You should really consider joing the Outdoor Bloggers Summit; it's a great way to get traffic to your site.
Great!! Just what I needed, one more thing to look at online when I should be doing something else! (just kidding)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to read of your adventures!
P.S. quit practicing calls while SMW is tryin to watch TV
