BC, you already know my feedback up the road from you in Murray, TX. Absolutely covered up in them...30-50 per feeding..

how far away is Murray from Breckenridge, like 18 miles North?

15 - 18 miles. I started staying in Breckenridge last season instead of Graham and always saw lots of wildlife on 578. Some nice bucks...

that is what I thought. Yea, on the game camera, we have had deer and pigs every day. I think that the turkeys will show up because the we just put the feeder up in February.

Are you going north on 578 out of Breckenridge? There are lots of creeks that way so I'd say the chances of turkey are real good..

we are South of Breckenridge about 6 miles on 183--maybe too far South?

We have a big creek that runs through it and some nice pecan trees as well along creek--and have a few cattle ponds that have water in them.

You should have them with the creek and pecan trees...Do you have good pasture grass as well? That seems to be a "must" too...

very grazed down by the cattle and that is what concerns me as there is no pasture grass. and, you are correct, it is a necessity. No cover to protect--we will find out though
