You guys are killing me. I broke my ankle 7 weeks ago & got the hard cast off yesterday. I got a walking cast but it is taking a bit getting used to. I might not get out for a late season turkey but I am hoping For a June bear up at Kirkland Lake as I can get in on my quad.

Its not for lack of trying. Its not for lack of birds but at the moments the hunting gods are favouring the turkeys however luck does swing both ways and eventually it'll go my way.

Nice Gobbler Rob . You look happy , his a## must be nice warm Lol
Post some pics of mine soon . Tagged out weds/Thursday.
My harvest this year was not at all like I had visioned. In fact it was more of an obligation. My morning hunt I had a jake lined up ready to go but I wanted to wait for the Toms. Which never made an appearance. So later I packed up and began to move to another location. Just as I entered the hardwoods Tom popped up from beside a log and tried to run away. The poor guy had a busted leg, so it was a mercy shot. That's why there is no huge smile, still a nice bird, beard 9 1/2 and spurs 1 1/4 I just wished I could of called him in. Thats one nice bird you harvested. Hope to see the mount when its complete.
