Killed one on the West Virginia opener today. Pulled the trigger by 7:15. It’s been a long time since I killed one right after he come off the roost. Even longer since I killed one on opening day. I also killed him on the land where my great grandmother was born and raised. That makes me 5th generation hunter on that property. My dad was with me for the hunt as well. What a day. Oh, did I mention he was an old bird with some big hooks?  |

Angry because the fence won’t keep them in?

Angry because the fence won’t keep them in? Have my eye on a big 'smoke phase' gobbler. Don't know if he is wild or if I paid $20 for him on craigslist. Rare. |

My neighbor up north has to kick the damn things outta the way to work in his cattle yard by his buildings. They're hungry now.

I think Welch was getting $40 for an evening session before they removed the personals. Memories.

My week opens tomorrow. No birds around with all the snow. Guess I won't be killing a bird this year.
Edt: I see last week in May still has tags available. Maybe I'll pick one of those up.

Birds are already spreading back out as the snow melts quickly. They are itching to go. You may see some activity last half of the season. I drove by Arts in the dark and dumped a breeding group off in the dark. They were strutting and gobbling in the crate at mid nite. |

Man did I wayyyy under charge. For $15 and a can of Mt. Dew, I kept the oak standing and trimmed the underbrush. Cup and stroke....cup and stroke.... |
