Off to a BANG, lol.
Opened up last weekend here in central, Fl and I made it out for four hunts.
First hunt, last weekend I started on public land in the Withlacoochee State Forest. Saturday was a bust, didn't see or hear anything. Sunday, however, I managed to call in a pair of jakes, I let walk.
Monday I was out of the woods, but Tuesday I hunted the Chasahowitzka WMA and called in a hen and four gobblers. I was using a handgun, a Ruger Single Six with the .22 Magnum cylinder in, and managed to miss one of the quartet of longbeards. I was out of position and rushed the shot...
Wednesday I hunted the same area as the day before and all I got was rained on and hypothermic. I packed it in early when I began shaking to badly.
I skipped hunting on Thursday, but hit the woods again Friday, guiding a lady friend, Kimberly, on her first turkey hunt. Didn't get a bird, but earned a BJ anyway... Woohoo!!!
Couldn't hunt this past Saturday and I took off today and probably will again tomorrow, but Tuesday thru Friday I'll be in the Citrus WMA. I Love Turkey Season!!!

Taken off the entire week from hunting, been feeling rough with a bad cold. Can't turkey hunt with a hacking cough.
But after a few CC's of LA200 (I keep it on hand for the horses) in the right ass cheek, I feel much better.
I'll definitely be back in the woods Tuesday, hopefully Monday.
