Indiana turkey hunters.

How did everybodies season go? I got lucky and shot a nice bird. My son didn't even get a shot.

Not good at all. For the first time, I'm eating a turkey tag.

I took a shot at a nice gobbler with my bow on opening day and missed. Too long of a shot, too windy, too many excusses ... I just missed.

After that, I had my Double Bull blind stolen.

Another day, I had a bird coming my way only to find another hunter between he and I (the turkey left the field over some guy's shoulder).

Then I spent the rest of the season sitting listening to nothing. In the last week and a half, I heard one lone gobble.

I'm actually glad the season is over.

Hunted my reservation hunt at Wilow Slough. layed tag with a pair of toms most of the morning. First opportunity was blown by a coyote that ran right past them. The second chance was blown after a coupe of mushrom hunters drove their truck through the field. What knuckleheads! Oh well, I'll try some private property for the the rest of the season.

Congratuations!! I am sorry your son didn't get a turkey though. I live in Northern Vanderburgh County, and we just starting to see Wild Turkeys here. About three weeks ago my Brother and I saw a Tom in full strutt trying to impress a hen turkey. I really don't hunt Turkeys as I've never really had a place to hunt them. I see tons of them in Kentucky where I Deer Hunt though during Deer Season.
