All I have coming thru are the juveniles, hen and poults. Same as last year.

That was my observation this and last year as well. It's a little frustrating. I have an idea where the Toms are, but owner of that property won't allow hunting on it. I've managed to call one in half way last fall, but it got spooked. This year, I can't even hear it. Mind you, they're not really aggressive at this time of the year.

I decided to go out one more time on Saturday afternoon. This time, there was another group of 10 following the original 22. I managed to get 3 of them to separate from the group and bagged myself an end-of-season hen.

Congrats awndray! I went for one full day and called in a small flock twice but not close enough for my bow. Still fun to be in the turkey woods and can't wait for spring now.
