With the reported turkey harvest so high this year, I thought it might be informative to see how difficult it was to kill a bird or two in North Carolina..
Yikes- i bet i win on most days with no NC turkey.
i'll have to count from my logbook.
I was looking at turkey populations per state. In general, most states harvested over 10% of their entire turkey population during the spring season. Some much larger, like Pennsylvania where 39.5K birds were taken from a population of 225.
Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that NC has the worst turkey hunters that could only manage 17K birds from a booming population of 260K. A mere 6.8%.
looks like i am winning- only one with 11-20 days with no kill. Only excuse i got is that aside from opening day all of them were very short am or evening hunts.
