KY Gobbler Season is Over

Well, our season is over in KY. As usual, it ends with a wimper. It was warm and cloudless with a stiff east wind. Angus and I went out for one last try this morning. Nothing. We heard one far-off gobble around 8 AM that was definately off our property. We came in and grabbed the garden tractor. Angus rode in the dump trailer and we made the rounds, collecting up all of our blinds. On our way out, we rode past one of my wads, still laying in the middle of the track, with a few stray feathers pasted to the grass with dew. The gear is all sorted and put away. The wash is all bagged out on the front porch. I’m certain the gobblers will taunt us well into June. In July we’ll start seeing poults running for cover behind the hens. By then, our attentions will be more on the deer coming into the new food plots.Write soon. Write often, y’all.
