Very nice! SC season opens this Sunday and I can hardly wait.

turkey season begins for me this saturday...dean that sure is pretty country your hunting..what gauge gun did you shoot that nice gobbler with...charlie

We used to have an old Neighbor who claimed Turkey Season started when ya see em !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:shock: Years ago if you seen a Turkey in our area it almost made front page news !:rotf:

Charlie, the gun I used to shoot that bird in the picture with was my DH 12 ga. with 30" Titanic barrels with Full/Full chokes.
The one with the camo wrapping and the hot pink front sight was my 10 gauge D-grade 3-frame lifter with 30" 0 Damascus barrels with Full/Full chokes.

Dean, after this winter I hope we still have Turkeys to hunt:shock:

You can say that again Steve. All wildlife has suffered severely this winter here in the Northeast.

You easterners have had a brutal winter this year! On the up side you won't have water issues this summer like we will out west. Our winter has been almost nonexistent, low snow packs and warm temps. Everything is blooming or starting to.

I'm afraid the turkey rut will be all over by the time the season opens April 15th. Good thing there's spring bears to chase.

For Charlie and others with spring gobbler fever.

A while back I posted pics of 12 long beards on another thread. The picture was not very good. Today I just remembered I had a trail camera close by so, with the snow now at a tolerable level I picked it up and ...

I thought I would stir your blood a bit. Get those big Parkers ready because it will not be long. Good Luck!

Oh, do me a favor and shoot the other guy in the photos as well. We could do with a few less!

It looks by the trails in the snow that those are each different birds.

Dean, they're gobbling early this year. Seems the turkeys are tired of old man winter too.
