Title: its time---headed south early Monday
Post by: jmck on March 12, 2011, 09:26:09 PM

Well---that time we all wait for so anxiously is getting really close for me---headed to Alabama to start the season off. Used to have a prestine huge piece of turkey ground until the timber buisness took the habitat. Still some birds there but no where near what used to be *gobble* *cry*. I have hunted this area for 15 years or more and know it and the birds well. Its a shame to slowly see a piece of SACRED GROUND go to the dogs so to speak. This in my 3rd year hunting the place when I know I need to relocate to a different area totally.
Its a sad loss and one I have realized but just cannot break to tie I have to the fine family there I have such a relationship with....but its changed totally. Hard to accept, but this will probablly be the last season I will be there. So sad the habitat has changed from prestine turkey woods....to BRIAR rabbitt country *cry* *cry* *cry* *cry*

Good luck Jeff! It is sad to see good hunting areas destroyed, everything changes and sometimes unfortunately not for the better in terms of supporting wildlife. Hope you find some new places nearby!

Good luck Jeff I know the feeling our lease in Pa. was completely laid to waste what a shame it was some of the finest ground I ever hunted.
