[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5890983, member: 2805"] I just don't understand this from a scientific standpoint. Breeding times in turkeys is COMPLETELY dictated by latitude/photo period. There is only 2 degrees of latitude difference between the northern border of TN and the southern border of TN. Contrast that with where I live in south MS... latitude is 5 degrees further south than TN... and the few birds still alive now are gobbling on mornings like today and can be called in. Where I hunt in middle TN is less than a degree further north than the southern border of TN... yet I was able to get on gobbling turkeys last year on May 28th. I'm not saying where you hunt they aren't gobbled out and it's over already because ive only hunted middle TN .. but from a biological standpoint that just doesn't jive. [/QUOTE]
