I forgot to mention , we have already mowed our clover fields . they are really looking nice .so white it about looks like a light snow on the fields . we've got soy beans , clover , buckwheat , chicory , to plant . we are planning on replanting a few in the fall , I'm not sure with what ...

@JD338 this should help catch JD's attention .

how are you guys doing with your food plots ? are you guys having any problems getting what you need ? we've got started . I'm guessing in March we frost seeded / over seeded a couple fields . last couple weeks we got some fields killed . we got a couple disced up . over this past...

I have no experience with a can . I do use muzzle brakes . I have a few and I've used them for years . if you do any prone shooting forget about a radial brake . a radial brake will blow a bunch of dirt and grass with each shot . for prone shooting you want a side port brake . on a side...

congrats on the hunt . next wilderness hunt you do , take a pack of baby wipes . it's like bringing a shower along .

EDIT ; I didn't read to the end of the thread , before replying . I see nightforce got back with you . Mark , I do use max power to set my focus , but that doesn't mean the reticle is true at that setting . what caught my attention was you using a kestrel for your dope , and going to use...

Mark , I don't have anything to read on this . I looked around online trying to find an article for you to read , but found nothing . Ernie is correct , half the power , doubles the reticle amount . using a grid target would be the best way to figure this out . if the 5 - 25 scope is true...

Mark, just remember , this is a SFP scope . meaning the holdovers and windage amounts will change depending on what power the scope is set on . the reticle is only true at one magnification setting . I'm not sure what setting this is on this particular scope . on my 5.5 - 22 NXS the...

PA's shooting hours are until noon for the first two weeks . the second two weeks until dark . I've never tried to hunt turkey after noon . most times I have trouble getting on them after about 9:30 or 10:00 . things get slow and quiet , and I get to thinking I should be getting something...

to me , it seems to be too much of a coincidence for the CDC to blow this incident off as nothing to see here , happens all the time . I have zero confidence in the CDC . about two weeks ago the one lease member got to talking about CWD , and asking questions . our lease is in a disease...

an article that is in my recent hunting newspaper on CWD . I have not heard about this before the article . does anyone know more about this ?

what I've heard from her in the news , is she was this dogs second chance . the dog had bite when the first owner had him , and it was mean , and biting with her family . she had young kids at home , a mean dog and young kids is a poor combination . how about Obama talking about...

the guys were putting another savage / stevens , 410 single shot together today . here is a target shot from 50 yards , and the empty shell .

I think there might be more kids that would try hunting , if they had someone to take them . a lot of parents don't hunt , or no one in the family that hunts . it's up to us to try and keep the sport going .

we had 4 youth hunters , they took 2 birds . not too bad of a day in the turkey woods . sounds like they want to come back next year . the one lease member has a camp about an hour away from the lease , the kids wanted to stay at his camp

if it's dry out , you can rustle your hand in the leaves between calls , to make a turkey scratching sound . turkey will scratch up big areas feeding . I'll gather up a few handful of leaves and put them beside me before I sit and get quiet in the morning .

this coming Saturday is youth day . the following Saturday starts the season , it runs the month of May . so far we have two youth hunters that want to hunt with us on youth day . I hope they show up , and get a few of their friends to join in . it's been about 20 years ago I got a young...

all my experience is with eastern turkey . set your blinds up where you are seeing the turkeys . try to be in the blind and quiet about half an hour before they start to gobble from the roost . I don't call until they are on the ground . don't call too much . let them get into range before...

I use a duffle bag style dry bag . it's Cabelas brand . it does keep things dry . I'm not sure if they have a backpack style , might be worth a look . I have a pair of meindl boots . I think this is the only pair of boots that I could wear all day right from day one . they are very...

some of the guys on our lease have bought the stevens 410 single shot shotguns , with a red dot sight . they are shooting the TSS ammo , I think it's #9 shot . I think these guys all took a spring gobbler ,using the 410's . the one guy claims he got his turkey at , I think , 70 yards .
