looking like a good day tommorow, they were gobbling by my house today and walked up on a longbeard strutting in the field.

Good luck to you. I thought my season was over after my three day draw hunt, but I found I have access to some excellent private property.

Fingers crossed...

Hey Ken, Good luck! I am confident that you will get one if you get a shot. If your shooting as good as you were at the stump shoot, that is!!! I may take a little walk in the morning. But I have a ton of work to do on the house later in the morning. Take a bunch of pics.

Just an update for some. Ed Bielejec who some of you have met at the stump shoot & the Muzzy is getting cleaned up. His property was hit by the tornado Thursday. No one was hurt & the house is OK, but lots of tree damage & wires down. The tornado bounced & luckily skipped over his structures. Happened @ 5 AM. Others right their had more damage but nobody injured. Just thought some of you folks might want to know.
