Went down to CNF in SD county. Had a little guidance from Johnny on a spot to try. Got in the area Sunday around 2:00 p.m. (last week, not this past weekend). Scouted hard till about 6:00 p.m. There were 1-3 trucks in almost every spot I checked on an 8-9 mile spread. Found an incredible spot that I said, if I was a turkey I'd for sure be posting up!! Everyone I talked to said they hadn't seen or heard anything promising, besides on private land of course. Set up my tent with an awesome view. Had dinner and a couple brewski's and passed out. Woke up at 4:00, got ready and started cruising. Got into some setups that were so sweet... just didn't have any birds in them. Saw a nice doe at about 20 yards and a coyote at about 50 yards at first light. Hate that conundrum... do I take the shot at a good dog opportunity and ruin a 1% chance at a turkey?!?! Probably should've pulled the trigger. Anyway... wanted to get out before the season closed. Had a good time on a solo hunt.
