Looking forward to Youth season, that's the last weekend I get to hear gobbling usually here in Western Washington, the little b'tards get sneaky come mid-April.

Looking forward to opener!!!  Me and the boy will definately be out there!!! Just being out there hearing them gobble is worth it!!!  Hell yeah!!!!

Is the hunting usually best on opening day?

Opening day the birds haven't been bumped, overcalled to, etc ... then again they usually still have hens with them ....  later on the hens are nesting, but then you have birds that are more spooked ... early or late you can overcome whatever you need to by recognizing what the situation is and making the necessary changes to your tactics .... my final answer then is there isn't a bad day in the turkey woods, it's just what you make of it !

Well say a guy only has two days to hunt out of the entire season. Which dates would be better- April 15 and 16 or April 29 and 30?

I prefer the opener ... should be good since it's on a Tuesday and you won't have the weekend only traffic.

I second that. I would prefer to take my chances with birds that haven't been educated yet this spring.

Lots of birds around on the opener but hunters are too ..

I am worried the snow is going to be long gone and the birds will be well spread out and harder to find. I prefer the snow to be lingering on the upper slopes and the birds still concentrated at lower elevations. Oh well I'll still be out there anyway. Good luck to all this year!
