So who is heading out on Wed. for 601c? I am taking the 9 year old out on Thursday can't think of a better way to spend day 1 of MEA?!?!?!

Well I was planning on hunting this weekend, but due to some bad timing and an unfortunate event, most of my land access was cut off. I may still giver a go on some public land though.

I'm hoping to get out for a bit in the morning, but am getting ready for an out of state hunt in a couple days. Doesn't leave much time between now and then with all that needs to get done before I can go.

Gonna hit it hard after I get back though.

Going to be out bowhunting deer tonight but if I get a bonus Turkey tonight that will be perfect.Try and pull a deer and a turkey.

Saw 13 with beards last night - just got behind the barn and stepped out to open a gate and there were 7.....in shotgun range, I had no gun along I knew by the time I got the bow and release and arrows out they'd be out of range so I climbed back in the truck and kept going.
Got over the ridge about 30 seconds later and another group of 6 was farting around in the pasture under some apple trees. Both groups were a mix of this springs jakes with say 5" beards and the others dandies.
I have this Fri off for the zone T hunt, might have to take the shotgun for a walk between morning and evening hunts

Me and my girlfriend each got one on Wedsday. SHe got a jake and I poked a hen with my bow. We only had one afternoon so we shot the first chance we had. I snuck up on a flock of 15 or so and we almost stepped on a group that was working the river bank. We hunted 262.

we had a slow weekend in the turkey woods, really nice weather just no birds, I am sure they are there they have been feeding in the field up to a week ago so they will be back, still have a couple of weeks so we should be good to go!?!?

my dad got a jake and thats it for us. nothing was moving for us all 5 days

MNMUZZLELOADER, if you are hunting MN last week, your season is over. They are only 5 day seasons.

maybe he hunts area 601 then it goes for 30 days

yep 601c so I have a little bit of time.

I took my nine year old daughter out on Friday morning. We set up in a hay field next to a corn field where we have seen turkeys using the area. Just after 8:00 eleven hens walked out of the woods and came straight to us. I thought she might want to wait for a Tom but the sight of those turkeys changed her mind instantly. She picked out the closest one at about twenty yards and dropped it clean with her 20 gauge. I got it on video and now she is showing it to all of her friends who come over. On a side note she also got two green heads on Monday morning, between the tail fan and the green head she is going to fill up her room and empty my wallet pretty quick.

My season starts today, kind of rainy, but if it's not raining after work I'll give her a whirl.

Didn't make it out until Thursday night due to the rain. Got out of my truck about 5:00, shot a hen at about 5:40, something like that. Saw them on a ridge when I pulled in my buddies driveway. We knew where they were going to head to roost, so I circled around & cut them off. Didn't actually hit her as good as I would have liked. She tried to fly off to the roost & then gave out & crashed about 40' down through the branches. It made a pretty good racket.

What are the differences when hunting turkey in the spring and fall?
