2023 turkey season

[42769vette]

Anyone else fired up for turkey season? I think since EHD killed my deer season, I'm more amped than normal. For me, season starts 4-15 in Kentucky, so I hope to get that state knocked out before Indiana gets up and running.

Last weekend in my yard at the cabin. I called and poured a cup of coffee. Was thinking of another cup and they were there when I got up.

My son and I are down in Florida hog hunting and we have seen a ton of turkey, next year it will be turkey tags!!!

We have been seeing more turkeys and hearing more gobbling than the last few years. Maybe this year will be a good season.

Lots of sign on my Michigan property this year also.

My front yard. Killed a bunch of coons last year so the population is up.

I've been shooting coons left and right. Skunks too.

Skunks eat ground bees. They get a pass for that reason alone.

They sure do. But they try to live under my cabin. Did you know they stink like hell even without spraying?

Haven’t heard much on the west side of Boone County.

Watching the toms strut for the past couple of days in the back field. Yeah, need to get on the coon eradication.

Yup. Full poured basement under mine so they're excluded.

I'd love to but no turkeys on my hunting grounds. In the 15 years of living in Greenfield I've seen 1 turkey close to here (Greenfield address).

I didn't put in for the drawing. I have property in Orange CO but don't know if I'll make it down there.

I don't know if I can make it down there either, but I'll try if you give me a good map and key to the gate.

I saw one was hit and laying beside the road last night. Heartbreaking, to say the least especially since those weren't around this area when I was growing up. I have the decoys and stuff, but have never taken a shot at a turkey, this may be my year.

I purchased a cheap lightweight black long sleeve shirt off Amazon to wear in my blind for the humidity. I got it today and on the tags it says how it’s uv protection, reflects uv rays, etc. If turkeys can see uv is this shirt going to pop out to them? Need to know if I should send it back.

If your in the blind there shouldn't be much UV to reflect I would think.
