Found a flock on private land, counted 30 crossing the road on their way back to roost. To the best of my knowledge they are not hunted. Went scouting with my 14 yr old hunting girl Sunday and counted 8 jakes and 2 toms along with 6 hens going across a field that we can hunt in. Just sitting in the truck at the entrance to the field 4 jakes came within range, I guess these are what you'd call non-pressured turkeys! Anyway, My buddy and I would like our kids to get their first turkeys but seeing as how all for of us need permits to hunt, our total bag limit is 12 turkeys. We definitely want to get the kids out for the two junior hunting days. Hate to sound overly optimistic, but how many male birds can be harvested from a flock of 30 assuming half of them are males? Also, are they going to get wise once we start blasting them?
