After visiting Kansas I am thinking about going up there this fall for a few days. I was told their limit is 4 birds in the fall and they do not count against your spring tags. When this turkey bug bites it really gets a hold on you.

right now keekee is in summer weight. she is happy on the couch out of this heat. the puppy "cutter" would be up for it. she is so full of herself it is hard to be around her. i used to think i had some fast shorthairs on the farm but this dog can take off and cross a half mile wheat field and be back by your side in what seems like seconds. really looking forward to hunting her this fall.  sooner

Rickey that is correct in the zone by MO.  I'm thinking the same.  If I remember right, 4 tags (since we already have our license) is like $90...  I may be wrong, but I believe that is right.  Also, there is more WIHA in the fall for turkeys!!!

i wish you could have seen the "i'm going to teach cutter to swim" episode this past weekend. my big gut has several toe nail marks as decorations right now. i think cathy bathed them too much as puppies because she does not like the water. keekee swims like a lab so i thought the jealousy factor may overcome cutter's dislike for water but not so. i took both and two retrieving dummies to the pond. keekee immediately took to the water with hers and cutter grapped hers and did laps around the house. i took cutters and threw it out in the pond where she could wade to it then kept throwing it a little further out. all this did was make her stand in knee deep water and bark at the dummy and at keekee. i went in the water so then she barked at both of us. i got hold of her "belly decorations to prove it" and carried her out 10 yards. she swims to shore and barks at us some more. a few more belly decorations and we still do not like water but were getting closer. i knew i had this problem when she was a puppy so used to take her to the little spring creek and walk her up and down the gorge. i swear she could cross the spring creek without getting her feet wet. anyway i'm glad we do not have pictures of this process. sooner

go to work on it. it only took us two years to get dogs legalized in ohio and then it took four years to get our season extended. this was with the help of only a small group of people. i'll help you any way i can and i'm sure john fries would help. your young and could get many years of enjoyment out of turkey dogging. i saw my first poults over the weekend. caught one flying a little dirt road but could not see momma and the rest for the vegetation. then i saw a hen with at least 8 about the size of your fist. with the wettest spring on record i've been more than a little worried about any hatch at all. hopefully many of the first nest that were destroyed were done early enough to allow for a good second attempt. sooner

I still say Cutter deserves to live here in Tennessee where she will not be tormented like that ! Sooner ya should feel horrible torturing that calm demeanored pup in that manner  *lol*.
I have a great visual of you in knee deep water trying to convience her that she will like the water  ROTFLMBO.
Hope the vacation is going well and tell Myra hi and we will see ya soon.......time won't pass soon enough.

Bow season has helped me a bunch... had 15 birds less than 20 yards of me Saturday, but just couldn't get the shot I wanted and they were pretty small...  should be just right for shotgun season!

After all the trukey birds I saw running around camp, nothing will take that edge off except watching day break from my favoriate ridge top on the 29th!

You can say that again , can't wait to hunt with Cutter on the 29th. we have been out a few times but havn't seen any turkeys yet.  We went out last sat. morning, Didn't even see much turkey sign, but i can't remember a year that that many Beechnuts were hitting the ground and  no turkey sign around.  The deer were hitting them but no turkeys. As many that was around last year  they are somewhere close by.
