Title: Teanaway spring turkey
Post by: PNWbowhunter on April 16, 2017, 03:10:22 PM: Hey this is my first year to go on the hunt for some spring thunder chickens with my bow was doing some scouting out in the teanaway area didn't come cross many birds so I was just curious if anyone had any tips or success out of that area in past years anything would be appreciated.

In the past finding multiple gobbler was easy. Now it's hard just to find one.
Good luck in your search

The Teanaway is a draw only permit for the fall season. So don't know how the fall season could be a problem there with limited amount of permits. Heard that over the last weekend a lot of people getting birds in the area but there were down low. Most likely private land.
