[QUOTE="Southern Sportsman, post: 5593758, member: 10399"] Maybe I’m wrong, but I think “the first two weeks” will always be perceived by many as the best time to hunt — whether that’s the first two weeks of April or the last two weeks of April. In the past, by April 15 you were hunting turkeys that had already been hunted for two weeks, a lot of gobblers had already been killed (something like 80% of the annual harvest), and some hunters had already tagged out. This year you’ll be hunting unpressured birds AND more hens will be nesting, so less natural competition. IMO, thinking that hunting 4/15 this year will be the same as hunting 4/15 in years past is shortsighted. [/QUOTE]
