8= 2 in FL, 2 in AL, 1 in AZ, and 3 in CA. I could have had a double grand slam in 1 year but only had 1 San Carlos Indian Reservation tag. Didn't realize the possibilities of that until it was to late to get another tag.

I have taken 8 per year a few seasons, that's the limit in the 2 states I hunt. Looks like I might have a decent season again this year. Today I was going to check a few deer cameras and this is what I saw.. This was 14 long beards in this flock, I watched them for about 45 min. I hope they start staying out of  sight. I don't want to many people seeing these.

I have taken a limit of 5 in Alabama a few times. In 2010 I did it in 7 days.  I did a lot of fishing that year.

Post by: R AJ on December 31, 2013, 03:25:19 PM
For me it is much more about numbers called in as I do more calling for others and getting newbies into turkey hunting. The most gobblers I called up in one morning years ago was 33. I had 32 jakes up at one time and after the guest who was with me let them pass we headed back to the vehicle. A quarter mile or so down the road I owled once and a single older gobbler rang out near us. Within 5 minutes he was being slung over my shoulder.
I never killed over 5 in one season, our limit in Alabama.

8 total in 2012. I took 1 in Georgia Opening weekend, 5 in SC, and 2 in KS.  I don't get to go a whole lot because I work Mon-Fri, but I did take 3 days off for Kansas.  Killed both birds in the first hour of my first morning hunt there.  I hit the box call a total of 2 times.  Could have gone back to GA in May but they're usually done by then where we hunt.
