Anyone else seeing a large amount of turkey population?

We are covered up with the nuisance critters. I saw 14 longbeards in one bunch yesterday afternoon.

Theres a bunch of us that would be more than happy to fix that issue for you!

We seem to have had good hatches the last few years. The 22 Hatch was unbelievable! I have seen and heard several while deer hunting this season ,Glad to read all the positive comments.

Yes thanks to the last few years hatches numbers coming up. No where near what they were but a lot better then the last 8 to 10 years by a lot.

Nowhere CLOSE to what they were in the early 2000s. On this farm the hens and this year's poults hooked up with the toms for a couple hours.

Back in the day, I called up 35 jakes at the same time in a juvie group while hunting.

But still WAY better that what we had 4 or 5 years ago.
