This was a tougher year for me. With the dry warmer winter it seemed like the birds were a week ahead of schedule. The youth hunt felt like a normal first adult hunt. The first adult hunt felt like the second adult hunt. I was able to hunt two days during the first adult hunt and got close each day but was not able to get a shot. I was able to get back out today but the wind really picked up before the birds flew down and made calling really difficult. I was able to get close enough to see the two lonesome toms but calling didn't really work in the wind. Luckily the wind died down after a couple hours and I was able to find another Tom all by himself in a different area. It seemed like the hens are already laying on there nests with all these solo toms today with no hens in sight.

Wild turkey sandwiches!

That’s the problem. You feel like it’s got to be one or the other. There are other options and that sentiment you carry is what’s driving this country apart as those two options are both pandering so hard to the far left and far right that neither is what’s best for this country. We need a return to center, and the first party of the big two to get there is gonna win it. I was convinced it would be the left seeing they had to become more moderate, but now I’m pretty confident Trump and his associates have gotten so far out of touch with the middle ground voters that the Republican Party might realign in the post Trump era. It just depends on how many mindless Trumpers are left out there and if the actual Republican Party can win it back. If they can’t, it’ll be a blue wave for the foreseeable future. EDIT: I didn’t answer your question, no I don’t think things would be better with Harris. I can’t think of a single thing that Trump has ACTUALLY done that had benefited me personally (this sounds selfish but we all have to address how we feel from our point of view). Most of my investments are Ag and Oil and gas related as that’s where I live, and he’s absolutely devastated both of those economies. I know with gas over $4 you’d think that oil and gas would be doing great, but things are just in a standstill right now in the oil field as they don’t trust him at all to not completely dump them about the time things level off. Interest is way to high for investment into such an up and down market. Trump yet again raised my taxes personally. In 2020 it cost my wife and I over $30k directly due to his corporate tax breaks as he laid it heavy on the upper middle earners to make up for it. His tariffs have done zero good, DOGE did absolutely nothing (Elon and his fall out is the obvious proof of that, one thought things were gonna happen and the other knew they weren’t but did it as yet another publicity stunt). My taxes stayed level under Biden. Oil and gas and Ag ALWAYS do better under a democrat. I’ve always considered myself moderate but fiscally conservative, but if this is the new conservative, I need to realign my priorities I guess as spending has only increased. National debt has increased at a rate that’s unprecedented, and I’m paying more and more every year we have Trump in the office to fund it all. I’m f’ing sick of it.

I would have payed $10 a gal. to never have had Biden as president. I can't think of one good thing he did. Trump can say and do some stuff that I don't agree with but he also has done lots of things I do agree with.

the United states of amnesia, did we forget inflation and gas prices were hire in 22 with Biden because he wanted us to buy electric cars. I guess im missing something besides Trump derangement syndrome. Not saying you have it. But I can't see how this is worse then what the last 4 years were. Just me.

If you just buy the dips he creates with his antics you might make enough to match the inflation he created.

If this was really about the uranium he’d do whatever it takes to finish the job. Including a massive ground effort to go get it. And making sure Iran doesn’t end this war with an even stronger hold on Hormuz. My guess is his distraction from the Epstein files and manipulation of the markets to benefit him and his buddies is literally blowing up in his face and he won’t have the huevos to finish what he started. But hey, everyone will be able to offset these gas prices with their inflated 401k’s now. Let’s throw a party.

There are now three political groups. Democrats (progressives), Republicans (conservatives) and now the unnamed. The unnamed are represented by Bill Maher, Joe rogan on the left and Alex Jones and mtg on the right. Center left and center right are now kicked out of the first two clubs.

If you don't have a 10mm, you need one for sure. I love my 10mm, and if not hand load, get Underwood ammo as they load them hot, meaning like a 10mm should be loaded. I carry mine during winter and when in the woods camping or hunting.

I'll take it if we can meet up.

We have a 5-week-old orange/roan female American Brittany available to the right competition home. This is a repeat breeding that has produced high-drive, tough, hard-running, intelligent, biddable, and good-looking dogs currently doing very well in NSTRA competition in both Ohio and Arizona. The original litter of 9 puppies sold out within 2 days of the breeding announcement, but we decided to hold back our pick female in hopes of placing her in a serious competition home focused on NSTRA, walking trials, or horseback AKC field trials. Puppy will be ready for pickup the first week of June.

I’m glad to have Trump back in office. I may not agree with every decision he makes, but I do believe he’s focused on putting America first. In my opinion, many European countries and Canada are struggling because of excessive government control, taxes, fees, and restrictions on the free market. I was in Canada a few weeks ago, and it was eye-opening to see how much things have changed. I fully support Trump and the direction he’s trying to take the country.

You believed a politician was going to lower your electric bill by 50%. 😆 I always figured you for a smarter human being than that.

Yeah Biden sucked. Trump picked up right where left off. I never paid $4.99 under Biden. Trump stood on the White House lawn in march 2025 and told you to buy a Tesla. Of course that was a tip to buy stock. That’s cool the market is doing great. you have trump glazing syndrome.

Water level seemed low at big lake this past week. Fishing sucked and turkey hunting sucked. Actually I think I just suck at hunting and fishing

My investment and retirement accounts like Trump. Lets hope 2026 stays the course.

The gas prices aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. Doesn’t matter what happens in Iran, be ready for $5 fuel through the end of hunting season. The markets are so far detached from what the average American has going on in their life anymore.

Big lake sucks. I threw a kastmaster and a Rapala for a while turkey hunting and caught 1 dink.

Nice Wall Hanger Don. I would hang it above my front door.

Seconds. Even if not in perfect condition, heck of a pretty gun!

I’d just pick the unit you can scout the most and maximize time in the field. Hours behind glass is probably more important than anything else for finding a big buck.

Kaibab archery. The late coues hunts are like a 4th season general tag.
