kimberx2 Report post Posted May 3, 2017 I was down in 35A for the 1st hunt. The Birds were gobbling very well on opening day. Where I was we could hear around 7 different gobblers from camp. I saw 6 gobblers within 20 yds in the 1st hour. Passed on some with scraggly beards and took mine at 6:10 opening morning. 10 1/2" beard, but no spurs. He walked within 2 yds of me before I got a shot at 15 yds. Other turkeys were too close to get a clean shot until he walked farther away. He was with 3 other gobblers, 7 jakes and 4 hens. Pretty exciting with all of them walking around me less than 20 yds, mostly 5-10 yds away from me sitting against an oak tree. I know another hunter that took his tom opening morning too, big group of toms, jakes and hens. Even saw another gobbler when walking back to camp, and had a bird gobbling all morning 150yds away from camp while we skinned my bird. Good Luck! Should be a blast. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
