Trying to decide when to make my trip down to Henry Co to chase turkeys. The past few years I have hunted towards the end of season and the birds have been henned up BAD. Was looking at either opening weekend or that following week this year.
How has your hunting been on opening weekend as opposed to later in the season the past few years?

In middle TN, my favorite time to hunt is that first couple of weeks of the season. The gobbling seems to taper off for a while after that, and then the action usually pics back up around the end of April.
