Snow on the ground can make hunting them easier. You know they'll be at bare patches and can set up accordingly. Even better to be set up next to freshly spread manure. Nice bird and congrats!! Our season doesn't open for another week.

Unfortunately, in VT it is not legal to spread manure on top of any snow at all.

What are farmers supposed to do with their mischt???? Just because it snows doesn't mean the cows don't produce manure!!

I agree it's totally absurd but it really is the law.

Too bad they don’t have a similar law in D.C.

Don't know about all the manure that's being spread, but that's a very nice gobbler, snow or no snow.

I didn't know what to expect with this first season with this kind of snow but we have been getting some calm sunny days and the turkeys are ready for spring so they have been very active. I have heard several reports of turkeys being shot and guys hearing lots of gobbling and seeing strutting birds.
