Well slap and I went down to a hunting area I had squirrel hunted 2 years ago and I knew there were plenty of turkeys down there from seeing them while driving past in my semi. We get there and low and behold you have to be drawn that morning to be able to hunt, they only allow 15 hunters per day for turkey. So with the ranger station being closed we headed off to the woods to do some scouting, within 10 minutes of entering the woods we jumped up 5 deer ;D Then after another 20 min`s of walking we jumped up a group of 3 more 
. Then I pulled out my slate and started some light calling to see if I would get any answers an d I did, had 3 toms reply within 20 mins. We kept walking towards the closest 1 and found him in a field edge. He quit answering my slate and learned a valuable lesson,,lol. I pulled out my locater and spooked him off. But all in all we had a great time seeing all the positive signs and look forward to going back and scouting and hunting that area more in depth.
