[QUOTE="Boll Weevil, post: 5337902, member: 10006"] Sounds like there might be both a supply and demand problem. Not only have reproduction numbers faltered, but hunters may simply be killing too many per acre. A later season start, lowered limit, shorter season, even modifying legal hunting methods doesn't address this. People hunt where they have access to hunt be it public or private whether it's 20ac out the back door or 20,000ac of national forest. 1 tom per 4000 ac is 1 tom per 4000 ac. Period, full stop, end of discussion. If somebody kills him, 100% legal, no trespassing involved...that's it. I don't have a good recommendation for how to address hunter density vs. gobbler density. There seems to be a significant mismatch in some areas. Good topic Bgoodman. [/QUOTE]
