I just joined and was looking for some insight on which properties may be holding some turkeys. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Hello John,
I will share my limited wisdom in this area. I know there is turkeys on the yale,imilay city, genesee, cass, jackson and some of the hillsdale propertys I think. I have taken 2 birds off of 116 and seen birds on the imilay city property and cass propertys along with the jackson property, I don't know what the numbers of the birds are but there is birds there. Of these propertys I think the Cass co. and Yale propertys have the most birds on them with the Jackson property holding birds that I have seen (remember I have only been on the Jackson property 1 time and seen birds on it).

John,
When I was out on property 104 today I seen a flock of about 20 birds in the field on the west side of the property. I got some pictures but they are not the greatest if you would like to see them give me your e-mail and I will send them to you. I believe there was 2 toms with them but couldn't see the beards as I was over a hundred yards away, I also can't get the picture to show up that good when I blow it up that much. The 2 I'm talking about where fighting for about 20 minutes it was kinda neat to watch. I didn't see any birds struting as I have in other fields.

I spoke with the landowner of the Hillsdale property and they have been seeing a flock of 30 or so birds on the 119 and 120 property.

Folks, I was hunting the 104 property today and seen several turkeys with 6 Toms. 3 of the Toms are long beards, 2 of them are jakes with less then 2 inch beards and 1 has about a 4 inch beard. 1 of the long beards fell to my gun today so that leaves 2 Toms with 9+ inch beards, the one I shot today had a 10 inch beard and was not the bigest or the dominit bird. I know at least 3 of these Toms where roosted on club property in Unit A, the other 3 including the one I shot came throu club property. I believe they came through unit A also but am not sure.
