Headed to a new piece of property in Mississippi this weekend to begin scouting (no calls allowed) and put out a few cuddebacks.  5 weeks! Counting down!

Anybody else started scouting?

We're still buried in snow up here in Ohio. The turkeys are frozen solid to the limbs. We don't open up until the end of April so i'll be looking to scout more in March.

I'm usually out and about by this time of the year, but here in Florida (like the rest of the SE) we have had nothing but rain and cold weather and wind. I'm hoping that this weather will mellow out. I really enjoy scouting the spring woods.

Yea, looks like we have a chance for some more snow tomorrow.  Twice in one year in south Louisiana,  hell might have actually frozen over! LOL!  Who dat?!?  Anyways, if not this weekend then i'll have to wait until the weekend of the 27th.  I'm ready!  I've heard birds gobbling good as early as February 8th.  So I'm eager to get out there.

Ive scouted three days this week, it looks like it will be another good year in West Ga. Im going in the morning to scout a new place that has just been clear cut. Any thoughts on hunting select cut property?

In southern Indiana...

Got to 63 degrees yesterday and melted all 8" of snow. I started getting the fever, but then it is supposed to snow again tomorrow.  I need to head south and hunt early.  who know's i might get my first snow bird this year.

Help me with some scouting techniques please. I usually just go out before daylight and listen to them in the mornings a few weeks before season. I see lots of scratches, but it seems as if they travel differently every day here in the spring.  Right now they are all going to the picked fields.  What more do you look for?  I am an ambusher when it comes to birds. Do you all try to pattern them? Helpful Hints for the Hooser wanted

2Beards,

Put some trail cameras out man and see what time they are coming to the field and where they are coming out into the field.  That-a-way if you can't score early that morning you know were the birds want to go and when they get there and you can be waiting on them! Then have a strutting decoy out there and watch the show! Happy hunting...
