Turkey survey

[Bigslam51]

Just took the survey. Some interesting regulation proposals, like starting the season the 3rd or 4th Monday in April, limit of one bearded turkey. Some public land stuff.

Limit of one bearded turkey? When I inquired about the piepald hen they told me there was 800,000 turkeys in Ohio.

Has anyone seen the final regs for turkey hunting in 2015? The turkey population is healthy here in the SW. Had a flock of 40 turkeys in my seeded oats plot 2-3 times everyday for couple weeks now on my time lapse cam.
Plus today I had 9 in the front yard and 11 in the back yard at the same time but only seen 1 half grown chick. It does look like a bad hatch at least here. I seen 2 hens couple weeks ago with 1 and 3 chicks.
