Guys, I know several of you on here are from Alabama.  A good buddy of mine from Washington is going to be hunting near Sylacauga the first week of April.  His mother/father in law live there and they're going to visit them.  Some of his father in law's co-workers are big turkey hunters and they're going to take him out.  Does this general area have a lot of turkeys?

Should be some good turkey hunting in the Talladega National Forest.

Yeah, he's already been checking areas out in the Talledega National Forest on Google Earth.  I think he'll be hunting some private ground too.

I've already told my buddy that there aren't any turkeys in Alabama, but he's willing to give it a try anyways.   :goofball:

And some BIG A hills
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.

Dang, beat me to it.

Tell your buddy to go ahead and bring two shells just in case.l

If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

I hunt about 15-20 minutes south of Sylacauga and I can tell 'ya to tell him to stay home....No birds around there   :fud: :newmascot:



Rio Fan

Thanks for the info, Basser69.  My buddy is excited just to be hunting in a totally different part of the country, he's only hunted in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.  With a lot of you saying there's no turkeys in Alabama, he's going to feel like a turkey hunting hero if he does manage to luck out and whack a bird while he's there.

There are no birds in Alabama, haven't been for a long time.

I tell ya the southern states sure take a beating during turkey season. Seems that Florida catches the most....
