Title: Pigs and Toms(Osceolas)
Post by: tarponnut on December 12, 2013, 09:04:00 PM
A couple of friends helped me with some work at one of our properties this past weekend.They hunted mornings and evenings and we did work mid-day. I saw lots of turkeys over the three days, including some really nice toms! Here is a short video of some sights and sounds of south Florida in December.

I don't think I could have held off shooting one though!

johnnyk71, it's about 3 hours, 170 miles. Directly across the state.
Bob, we got the target from Dink's Feather shop, a TG sponsor. They're great, really hold up well.
Thanks.

Many Thanks you guys, for making our property better.
Can't wait to get down there to see the improvements.
I'm itching to build some nice ground blinds before all the action starts.
Keeping the scent down, making a nice spot for two, and staying dry in case it rains are going to be worth it.
Looks like we have plenty of resident pork again this year.
See you mid January, Jim.

I'm counting on bringing home the bacon.   :bigsmyl:

Tom,
Irv's got some great ideas for ground blinds. We will be building them in early January. We also put two new feeders on a property nearby that should be getting hit by now(there was hog sign everywhere).
