southern region turkeys

[theox]

so i normally see more turkeys than i care to aroound this time every year, this year is different ive seen 3 jakes and 5 hens total.very little sign... i ve covered about id say 80 percent of the hot turkey areas i know. im running out of options. anyway not trying to get anyones areas more just wondering if anyone has been seeing any around the cedar city area.new harm,pinto etc... im starting to think there has been big time winter kill on the southern birds. anyone else having this problem? might have to let an arrow fly on a jake soon. anyway if any one has been seeing much and doesnt mind sharing where, thats great too.

I didn't have the same problem. Most of my friends have tagged out as well. The problem that I see is all the areas that you mentioned are high traffic turkey areas that get POUNDED! The birds are call shy and skittish. Try to find an area away from the road and the traffic and I think you will have success. I sent another guy to a good spot, I'll see if he's done with it or if he's even going to go there. If he's not I'll pass the spot on 2 you.
