Hard to believe I actually drew a permit for turkey I put in for only 2nd time ever and I've put in a ton its later season date but I'll take it. The NC leg of my spring season just got little brighter. My kid struck out on all 5 choices which does suck though

Zero for my son and I during regular season. I was able to snatch up a youth permit for my son and daughter in the leftovers tho.
 
I got Singletary Tract the week of 5/4-5/6. Struck out last four years in the drawing. I guess a late week is better than no week.

Only put in for one draw but was selected for my first choice. Last year was my first year applying for a turkey draw hunt and it was a great hunt even though we didn't get to pull the trigger. This draw hunt is shaping up to be one of my favorite weekends of the season.

No love here, 2 years in a row no swan permit, no turkey either. NC is getting too populated!!!!! Have plenty of birds at the club, guess I'll make a longer trip to KY.

in all seriousness, i am actually looking for some advice for Butner Falls. Not specifically where to hunt, more where to eliminate. I was thinking of the Durham side by Cheek Rd. I have hunted private land out that way and know the turkeys are in the gamelands. My question is where are the spots on the map that look like good spots but are really busy with non-hunters? I plan on scouting etc but if anyone wants to offer some info on places to cross off because my hunt will likely be ruined, I would appreciate it.

I got two on the same gameland back to back, and zilch on a second game land. There are plenty of Youth and Youth/Adult left over permits available.

to me that back to back deal is the ultimate draw.gives you time to figure them out.
Congratulations.

Got Chatham/Harris Game Land April 27-29.

I have got NO IDEA where to go for that draw. If someone has some good tips of where some birds are known around there I would be eternally grateful. I've hunted Jordan before with success... but didn't get the draw for any weekends for that.

I have never been on that GL but the Tip I would give you is the same.. boot leather.. the only way you ever figure a place out is to scout it. I will spend a lot of time on the GL I drew and I have hunted it several times before.

It won't let me. Maybe your post count or a setting you have checked? There are some funky rules on this forum.
