Southeast Louisiana.......I seen 4 gogglers strutting Monday morning with about 15 hens. This evening I seen 8 hens, 2 jakes, and 1 longbeard. They was feeding along behind the hens. I know a few guys that have been hearing a few gobbling.

Doing their typical thing round this time of year.....saw 4 strutters with about 15/20 hens (they weren't paying too much attention to em') this afternoon. Buncha jakes trying to get in on some action...they spent more time fightin' amongst themselves.

Upstate SC.  Had a buddy tell me one was gobbling today at around 1100 at his daddy's house.  Said he gobbled for about an hour off and on.  Also said they have been seeing a turkey strutting with 10-15 hens in the field across from his house every morning for the last week.  Weather man says it is supposed to hit 75 here Fri.  Still got 43 more days before the season opens.
Turkeys are as smart as hunters make em and public land offers more classes.

Like turkeys   :turkey2:
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

This time of year on my properties I don't hardly ever see birds.  I still am covered up with sign though.  They pretty much stick to the pines during Feb.  I was out running traps the other morning and had one hammering like crazy though.
