Off to 22 in a few hours. It's with a bow or nothing. Good luck to everyone!

My hunt starts May 2nd and 3 of my friends shot 20 pounders this weekend. Now only 15 more tags to fill in our two camps next weekend. The wife is gunning it and I'll be throwing arrows. The shoulder is doing fine so I retired the crossbow. :)

 

Good luck to all you turkey hunters. :P

Anybody killing this weekend? Headed up next weekend to 6A and I all ready can't sleep. Andy

 

I have a tag for Unit 1 and spent mornings and afternoons on Friday and Saturday in five or six of my favorite places around my cabin. The birds were there because I heard them coming off their roosts both mornings, but they would not respond to my calls.

 

Saturday evening we had two hens feeding within 75 yars of the blind until they went to their roost and, even with "live decoys" chirping, we never heard a gobble. The only bearded birds we saw were running across roads, and they were alone without hens.

 

In my opinion, the gobblers weren't "hot" yet where I hunted in Unit 1.

 

Will try again Thursday. My season runs April 25-May 1 and picks up again May 9-22, so I'm in no hurry to tag out.

 

Incidentally, I found a beautiful set of brown 6x6 elk sheds Friday morning ... both sides dropped at the same time between two aspen trees. It was a good bull, with long tines and lots of mass, but the main beams were only about 40-44 inches.

Lark:

 

River Lake near Greer produced a big brown last week, I heard. If you're camping out be sure to take extra warm clothes. It's been getting down to the high 20s at night in Greer. It's below that in the higher country.

 

Some of the roads, including the one up Escudilla, still have snow banks that block them. All the major roads are open though.
