Spring Turkey WMA Draw

[waterman]

Successful for oak ridge 23/24. Had three priority points due to oak ridge cancellation. Will be surprised if it happens this year.

I appreciate all the input and help! Being my first year and entry, I figured it'd be unsuccessful and I was right. Good luck to those that were successful, and I'll see the rest of yall out on public land!

A large portion of my family work at K25 and ORNL. For those of you (including myself since I got drawn for Oak Ridge also) I will stay in contact with them and keep you updated if I hear anything either affirmative or negative on the hunts.

Got Chuck Swan 4/7-4/9. It's close to my family so should be easy logistic wise. Looking forward to checking it out. That's where some of my family was from back before TVA so I am excited to chase birds there.

Unsuccessful as well and I'm now up to three points.

For some reason I never expected point creep to enter the drawing for the turkey quota hunt.

 

[THE DUKE]

I got a point. I was at zero, because I drew happy hollow last spring. I was overly optimistic that my son would draw happy hollow with one point, but he didn't either. He's sitting with two points for next year.

My buddy got drawn for happy hollow, how was the hunting there.

When that hunt first started, I tried to talk to TWRA about how insane that was but they have just stuck with it. Just insane. I play the quota game all over the country and I don't know another wildlife agency in the country that would do that.
