Alright all, Below are the team assignments for the 2013 TOO Spring Turkey Competition. Please create a team thread and check in ASAP. I started a youth team based on comments in this thread and the Deer contest. If your child does not want to participate, let me know and I will remove...

Someone got lucky in Kentucky :smiley_clap:

I hate forgetting gear and I'm actually packing up my gear this weekend for the opener just to have it ready and home. I thought I'd throw my stuff out and snap a quick picture. Remington 870 with Undertaker Choke - I threw an Allen red dot at the end of the barrel #4 3 inch Nitro's Gear...

I had 2 big long beard Tom's walk past the dining room window not 10 ft away. There was 2 hens also. They weren't displaying. Come on hunting season. [URL=http://s1132.photobucket.com/user/MK11111/media/turkey4-11_zps78b76c8e.jpg.html]

I'm about the most novice of most of the turkey hunters on this site but wanted to start my season off with a thread. It will consist of pics and videos of scouting trips,trail camera shots and actual hunting views and such. My cameras will be going up very soon, hopefully this week, and I'm...

Turkey hunting is looking up for ole Frank. I just went down to the bottom pasture I removed the cattle out on Tuesday and there was a flock of 27 turkeys. There was 3 big long beards struting and displaying, 3 Jakes with 1-2" beards with red heads, and the remaining 21 birds I seen no beards...

Last spring I attempted to make a turkey skin rug by skinning and borax/salting the hell out of my toms feathers. I then sandwiched it between two plywood sheets and put it in my garage rafters for the summer to dry out. If the mice wouldnt have chewed the tips off a few of the feathers I would...

Forgive me if I missed a thread about this. I see threads about mouth calls, or specific calls. I didn't see any about all varieties of calls. Last year was my first year turkey hunting. Hunt was all I did. Sure didn't do any killing or even shooting. Seems I saw them in full strut and...

Yesterday my son and family seen a white spotted turkey with black spots on the front of my farm. He didn't think to take any pictures. But it had no beard so probaly was a hen. Hopefully I will see it while hunting and get some pictures. Also hopefully there maybe some pictures of it on my...

Alright all, Below are the rules for the 2013 TOO Spring Turkey Competition. Format/Rules are the same as years past. That means the buddy bird system is back to help promote the brotherhood of TOO! I look forward to a fun, safe and successful turkey season. TOO Turkey Competition...

Forgive me if this was already talked about, but are we doing a contest and holding signups this year? Old Scout was asking me yesterday and we aren't too far away from the opener.

43 days! I'm fired up for this turkey season! I'm planning on doing some scouting between now and the opening morning, but I've already got a flock patterned historically and the winter flock numbers have been really good. I'm planning on picking up a Keystone Wedge. I'm debating...

We have picked up some new members lately, and I am interested in hearing some of their stories. Adding some more threads to the "first kill" forum sounds like a good idea. I already posted my first deer story, so I thought I might drop the story of my first turkey. The story is in the turkey...

For those of you who bowhunt turkeys...Do you use your regular broadheads from deer season or do you purchase turkey specific broadheads? If you buy turkey specific broadheads what is the advantage for you? what is the difference between turkey and deer broadheads?

I had a flock of about 10 turkeys in the front yard about 7:30AM. Looked like 4 hens and 6 chicks. Man have they grown in the last 2 weeks as they are about the size of pheasants now maybe alittle bigger. Wish we had a Fall Hunt in SW Ohio. But the local Warden said no fall hunt unless there is...

My 2012 spring turkey. The only other turkey I got couple years ago was during a rain storm and I shot a long bearded hen. Be damn if I could see for all the rain in my shotgun scope. Eat good though. I have seen upto 56 in one flock here on the farm. And had 4-5 Toms 15 ft from the window of...
