Dang frustrating! Their coming out to eat and strut on the grass by the road and I feel like the little Dutch boy try to stop the leak. Now they came out about 100 yards down the road . Might just pack it in and go catch some Walleye instead of bagging ticks everyday! 😕

Those are the birds they are the most memorable to beat!  
 

It’s a long walleye season and short turkey season. 😉

That’s what I felt like in Wi, no matter what we did they would do the opposite. I feel your frustration.

Well, I'm done. It's just to late in the season and their shying away from calling or decoys.

 

Bummer let me know if you have any good turkey tag soup recipes? I hope I don't suffer the same situation. 

 

As of now I am leaving at 9pm tomorrow after my sons baseball game. Driving 400 miles west through the night with the intention to be at our cabin door just before sunrise Friday morning. Sleep is over rated, I will take a nap on a hillside with the ticks waiting for a gobbler show up lol.

 

Plan is to hunt Friday to Monday, I would really like to bag a bird early Friday and get it done the first day. Then  just relax and have fun the rest of weekend.

Well turkey tag soup it is. None of the roosting spots panned out and lots of wet rainy weather. From Friday morning to Monday morning I only heard one gobble and that was Sunday night. Didn't even see a bird and hunted both private and public land.

 

One thing I didn't account for was all of the extra noise and traffic for the holiday weekend. Lots of people showing up and neighbors land who I got permission to hunt at wasn't supposed to have anyone there ended up having people there. Lots people making lots of noise. I think that kept the birds tight lipped.

 

I hunted every morning and evening starting Friday morning to Monday. The other thing that didn't help was all the deer they are just thick out there.  Sunday night as I made my way closer to the only gobble I heard I got busted by a deer and she let me have it and let every other critter out there know about it.

 

During the afternoons and midday I just hung up the vest and got about 150 miles of trail riding in on the ATV over the course of the weekend. Still not a bad way to spend a holiday weekend.

 

 

Also did some ELK shed hunting, found some scat and rubs but no antlers.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • 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.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • 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.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
