How's the turkey hunting going?

Anyone doing any good yet?
 
Didn't see anything on saturday. Went out last night and another hunter busted em up right before dark. Went in early this morning and called a young hen in. She came in silent and then disappeared. Then I had to leave for work. Back at it tonight, time change this weekend will give me another hour before work to hunt next week!
 
Post stories or pictures. Good luck to all.

    Bagged mine last night. Went out after work where I've been going all week and finally got into them. Busted a flock of around 15 birds up. Got a nice sized hen. All were really young birds. Now I don't have to debate on hunting or going to Erie till rifle seasons in.

    Baggd a nice hen Saturday.  First chance to try out a Hevi-shot load in #5.  Devastating to say the least.

    One caught me drawing last week.  I've been seeing a lot of birds, unintentionally.  Wish I could see that many deer!!!
