Team #1 Roost Rustlers

[rundrave]

Since we are team #1, they are obviously ranking us and we have a lot to live up to! lol

This will only be my 2nd try at turkey hunting, but hopefully after eating tag soup last year I can apply what I learned and bring home a bird this year.

I will be heading out April 15th-17th hunting public land in Gregory county here in South Dakota along the beautiful Missouri River. I have 2 tags to fill, and I still want my first bird to be a Tom but after going home empty last year I may just take whatever I can get.

Looking forward to hearing from the rest of you. Good luck!

Minnetonkaman reporting for duty!!!!! I will be hunting in zone 427 during the B season which is April 18-22 in MN. We are hunting a woods that only has a few flocks in it averaging 10 birds per and a few single roamers. About 30 birds are in the near vicinity based on last falls counts. Hopefully this harsh winter didn't get to them because we haven't seen the big group for a while out scratching. My dad didn't get one last year with me on the call because they were still grouped up and not leaving a area forty by forty that was not sneak able to. This year I am hoping to help the team and put the senior citizen in the flock down!!! Hope everyone has a good season and I'll keep an eye out on the thread for new posts.

Bowfin reporting in. I'll be hunting mainly public land in zone 225 during season E (May 3-7). This will also be my second year going for turkeys. I hunted a May season on this land last year and should've had a Tom in the first hour but got busted. Saw turkeys every day I hunted last year but the last 3 days of the season it poured rain and I didn't get much response. Hopefully I'll take what I learned last year and help the team by getting a Tom. I am also hoping my public land hunting spot is overlooked by other hunters as it was last year. I have a couple uncertain back up spots if needed. Good luck to everyone!

Any ideas for a team name?

[mrklean]

[fishnhooks]

Hi Team.....I'm in 225 - C. Hopefully I will be as sucessful as I was last year.

"hooks"

[fishnhooks]

Maybe our "team #1" says it all for a team name????? I'm pretty open for a team name.

[fishnhooks]

I'll try to help come up with some team name ideas, but it is too early right now

I'll be hunting 243G near Menagha/Sebeka. I'm hoping to break a 8 year drought this year. I got my first bird during my first year chasing turkeys in 2003 near Hutchinson. The following years I spent hunting near Preston/Lanesboro and always had chances but kept making mistakes. I won't go into detail on that. One of the years between 2003 and now I didn't hunt, but that still counts in the drought. This year will be tough with less birds to chase, but they shouldn't be as pressured as down in SE MN. I've been working my mouth calls pretty hard on my way to/from work. I went for a cruise on Saturday near Rogers and spotted a group of 7 feeding near a farm's grain silo. May 13 will not come soon enough! If my dad and I can manage birds on the first day of the season (not likely) we can make it to Leech for the fishing opener on the 14th. Good luck everybody!

[fishnhooks]

"hooks"

[Bowfin]

Since Mrklean made first kill. I vote that he picks the team name??

[mrklean]

Roost rustlers sounds good

[MinnetonkaMan]

Thanks for starting us off in the right direction, Mr. Klean. Those are some nice birds. My dad use to hunt MO but since about two years ago their area wasn't holding as many birds and the price sky rocketed. I cant wait to put one on the board for the Roost Rustlers!!!! T-Minus 13 days!!!!

[Bowfin]

Anyone know how to put our team name in the subject line of this thread?

[mrklean]

pretty sure a mod has to do it

[Archerysniper]

Whats you name and I will change it.

[Bowfin]

Sounds like we agreed on Team #1 "Roost Rustlers"

[Archerysniper]

Done
