Anyone else getting the itch?

I will be the first to admit that turkey hunting was the last thing on my mind. Until today on my way home,right on the corner of hwy 7 when I was turning eat off of 41 there he was full strut in the brush on the hillside showing off for the ladies.

Which season to apply for that is the question. I've hunted public land in Isanti County for 3 years yet with out a bird but have had several close encounters where I should have had a bird.

I'm trying to figure out what season would have the least competition on public land. I am thinking season B as it is normally week days and no week ends.

My first year the birds seemed to respond to the call a bit better during later seasons but last year they ignored virtually all my calling. I think they were wise to calls in the late season.

I've been thinking about this since last season. Already have my days off for NE, SD , WI will not use any days for MN but hunting here also. Still trying to fit MO in for the spring.Picked our weekend for scounting NE (March 16)already to try and pick a another farm or two to hunt.

Took a few arrows that I'm not using for deer hunting and already have them setup with my turkey broadheads. Sent in a blind to be repaired so I'm ready for the end of March. Ice fishing has to get me through the next couple months going to be tough.

Cleaned out the freezer and found out just how lazy I am. I knew I had a few turkey tails in the freezer but found to be 42 tails that need to be put on plaques . At least I have a winter project to do when I'm not on the ice.

The itch goes away? I seriously don't know what you're talking about.

I've gone once and got the bird of a lifetime maybe last year, I'm done turkey hunting until further notice, why because this is the perfect opportunity to take my son who turned 10 now, nieces and nephews and let them have the experiences, then some day again I'll be back at it. There's really no grouse, snowshoe hares, or ducks to hunt in our area anymore so the turkey is a good way now thankfully to get some youth outdoors, if they succeed I'll post their photo's this spring, then those same children will be horsing in walleye shortly after that, this Newtown thing really hit hard, I must make more time for kids and turkey hunting is a great way to do it.

I'm with Don, I haven't lost the itch. I spent about 3hrs online planning my NE trip the other day.

SInce I'm done bow hunting for deer its time to get the bow dialed in for the Bullheads!!

[Cheetah]

No itch yet, too busy with other things lately. I did apply for WI though, talked briefly with a friend about MN. Still planning to go to SD but nothing is planned yet for that.

The itch never left for me. Shooting my first bird this last spring just got me more excited for this years hunt. Can't wait!

Yep!!! Every time my wife and I bowl on the Wii and I get 3 strikes in a row, I strut around the living room like a turkey. LOL

Especially fired up for this spring, as my wife wants to give turkey hunting a try. It's only taken me 12 years to wear her down and get her out in the woods to hunt. She's never shown interest in hunting anything.

I can't wait,My little girl is 7 now and if she can handel a crossbow and be proficient with it its game on.

My 10yr old is in, but I'm not sure which weapon. She doesn't like guns and I'm not sure she will be ready with her compound. Time will tell.

I'm switching gears on my bow to get my turkey gear dialed in.
