Should be good. I have seen more turkeys in the last week than I have seen in years. I don't shoot them, just look at them.

I used to shoot them. Then I found things that I thought tasted better. The Ibex don't leave much corn for the turkeys to eat.

Same here, we shoot as many as we can. This will be my son's first turkey season with his single shot 20ga in hand.

I think it's funny how deer hunters are always complaining about other animals effecting there deer , weather it's turkeys eatting corn put out for deer or hogs knocking over feeders or coyotes killing fawns ,

I feed wildlife. If a hog or turkey wants to eat some feed, that's fine

What's not fine is a flock of turkeys camping out at a feeder and running everything else off

You could say you're going to shoot it.

If you kill your four turkeys and then at the end of spring about three dozen hatch your corn will still be gone.

On the morrow, I shall take my fowling piece and go afield to procure a turkey for my hearthside table.

In the event I'm unable to harvest a young fowl, I shall stop by churches on the way home and order a No.6 with gravy and a sweet tea.

Caddo National Grasslands WMA is in Fannin County. I went scouting in the bit near Ladonia this weekend. Didn't come across any signs of turkey.

Also, LBJ-Caddo National Grasslands is outside Decatur.

Where abouts in Erath? Anywhere near Lingleville or 397? Those look familiar! Curious if they are good everywhere.

Jaymz, you have a lot of turkey there. I particularly like the longbeards in those pics, several of them.
