2011 Fall Turkey Hunt

The turkey hunt did not even come close to planned this year. Had scouted turkeys for two weeks prior to the hunt and found three good size groups that i would be able to try at but had to miss opening day due to work and school. the second day of the season i could not locate the groups i had been watching for the last two weeks so i spent most my days walking and glassing trying to find a group. finally i found a group but they were on private property and they wouldnt come off the property and everyone i talked to didnt know who owned the property so i could not ask permission to hunt there so i had to let the group be. these were the only turkeys i seen the whole time hunting. then as i was leaving the hunting area to go home the alternator in my vehicle seized and broke the belt so i had to call a friend to drive three hours and bring parts to me and help me fix the vehicle. so my turkey season wasnt very productive this year but i did get to be with great friends and family while i was having no luck, which in reality is what i think hunting is about. hopefully next season we can fill some tags and if not it will still be a good trip.
