2019 Turkey Season

Moved to a different place a little after 9. On the way there we about hit this hen.

As soon as we sat down we heard a couple hens across the road where we aren't allowed to hunt. No gobbles but a morning spent with a good friend was well worth it.
 
Went down to Tuscarwaras County for a Sunday hunt in the rain, could of reached out and touched a beardless hen, no jakes, toms or bearded hens to be seen. My Seneca county spot I had high hopes for -the turkeys have vanished and I have no idea where they have went. So its been a pretty typical turkey season for me. But I also suck a turkey hunting having grown up in northwest Ohio where they didn't exist until about 10 years ago
 
I have a hard gobbling jake that keeps following me around and bringing his two buddies with him. Big boys are gobbling a time or two on the roost and then shutting up. I was surprised that a longbeard didn't come shut this jake down Saturday morning, he must've gobbled 50 plus times

Been in Virginia with Addy playing in a softball tournament the last several days. Got home at midnight and went this am before work. Had one at 40 yds and just couldn't get a good shot. Heard a few and we will be after them again tomorrow.
Congrats to all thats had success. Plenty of time for those who haven't yet!

I was going to post that this morning and ask if anyone knew that, I just found that out yesterday afternoon as well.
 
Doesn't seem to matter around here. I've seen two different guys hunting well past noon. Frustrating.
