TurkeyRookie, do you hunt with buddies or at a guided service? What are the numbers of snows like in that area if you don't mind me asking of course?

We'll have to hook up this fall for some birds.

As for the snows, My parents, and a few hunting buddies live in the area, and we have access to a lot of property, dad and our buddy scout our properties, and if they find them, I get the call (last minute kind of deal).

If we don't find them, then we don't hunt them.

The numbers are high, no where near what QC has, but they spill over a good percentage of the Ottawa area.

I hope to do more hunting this year. Would like to do a little more WFing in particular.

Sept-dec 2014 is still a long way off, and way to many unknowns here at home. So any real plans are kind of dicey.

Well hopefully get out and stomp on brush for hours and not see a single rabbit a few more times before spring. I'm doing my restricted course in March and going to write my turkey exam the same day, I've had the DVD for a year now just haven't got around to writing. Hopefully I can then start planning for spring turkey but we will see how much fishing gets in the way of that. I have some waterfowl gear to source and upgrade, couple of layouts will be the main thing, need to patch up my leaky canoe, and my wife is also going to do her PAL and Hunter Safety courses this year. Should be a fun!

Hopping to change my menu this year, last years Tag Soup was getting boring.

Tree stands around the family farm deer and coyotes are getting too damn smart

I'm going to pinta island to hunt tortoise this spring. They have trail cam photo's of a monster and are patterning it for me for when i get there. cant wait to hang the shell over my fireplace...

Thanks for the info, My buddies grandparents live in Quebec so we were thinking of heading that way to hunt . More Canadas than snows but a good amount of them

This year I'll be taking a week off for spring turkeys. Hopefully take a few guys out that are new to it and have been asking to go. I want to get some guys out and try out a game farm this year, maybe around the end of may? I want to take waterfowl opener off and a week off for deer season also which will be a first for me. I want to buy another dozen duck decoys and a few dozen geese decoys. A semi auto shotgun to replace my pump for waterfowl. I'd like to get some kind of blind for the canoe. And all this after I win the lottery…lol

I need my own shotgun.. Tired of borrowing my dads.. that's my goal for 2014.. To save enough for a shotgun and an ecollar

Start off with turkey hunting then a fishing trip. Shoot lots of skeet, trap and sporting clays over the summer and then moose hunting and then the deer hunt. Thinking about the controlled hunt for deer as well so I'll play with the muzzleloader a bit and am thinking about treating myself to a rifled slug barrel for my 20 guage 870. B525.
