I head out tomorrow am, see what happens - they shot 3 birds between fri and sat last week where i am going. Still have back up spots and should be able to put something together. Sounds like a rainy forecast.....oh well. Back to work thurs and off friday. Will report, sounds like the dumb private land birds are in the freezer - guess i will have to outsmart the wise ones! 870 is ready!

Hunted last night and had one gobble near me but never came out. Called a hen to the field a bit later.

This morning no gobbles. Hens are in the valley below me. Hoping something comes by. Rain coming soon.

Nothing doing for me, had a couple small toms around yesterday and they could care less about my calls. My main spot has been a complete bust, dunno if they killed em off last week or what. Might go in the rain tomorrow at a last ditch effort in a new spot, otherwise about ready to throw in the towel......No complaints, had a great time afield!

I've been hunting in the rain here. Sat through a bad downpour yesterday but the blind kept me dry. The property I started in has only a few hens on it. Got permission a mile over on a great spot but the birds are in a valley over the fence. Had 7 hens come out this morning. Heard a gobble behind me a little while ago. Sitting through more rain now and hoping they come back out to the fields in the next couple hours before I decide to pack it up.

After the rain stopped yesterday morning I walked the field edge to see if I could spot any birds before I packed it up. Looking out across the valley onto the next farm I could see 20 birds out in one of their fields...

Better luck next year I guess.

Here is a nice photo from the weekend.

All a person can do it try guys.

The turkeys have had my number for most of the last 15 years. I didn't even hunt some of those years due to frustration. LOL

Slowly the tide is changing in my favor. grin

With the weather straightening out for the next few days, I would think those soaking wet toms would be active.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
