How about bird flu? I have no doubt that wild pheasant were decimated in the east by it in the late 70’s. One year they were abundant next two or three years gone.

@TucsonFX4 I’ll take the leupold rings if still available. Thank You

@buck wild This was one of my Colorado Rios two years ago a triple beard. For some reason I am lucky on multiple beard gobblers, Rio triple, Eastern double and this year Osceola double.

Most of the states I hunt turkey in have delayed starts to allow mating. I actually like it. Many of the hens are bred and working their nest. The gobblers are on the “roam” early in the day and looking for action. Less competition from real hens helps.
