Ed, You're right, but the issue is serious. The Turkey are continually adapting to the winters here, and there hasn't been any point where they seem to stop moving north. It's sort of like the Asian Long Horned Beetle, and the Hemlock Wooly Adelgid. You know it's going to reach you, no matter were you live. There is probably some population balance where the two could co-exist in the same area, but at present, no hunting regulations and bag limits are sufficiently matched to their population growth, nor are there any real organized efforts to try and change that, apart from possibly The Rough Grouse Society (sorry if I got their name wrong, I'm a member, but can't find the card)
