They are knocking the woods down!  Does that help?
Actually, I have no idea... maybe Hody (who hunts down that way) or Longbeard Magnet can chime in when they get back on the board. I know Hody's hunting today, not sure about LM...

FB,
Appomattox is a GREAT place for gobblers. Anywhere in or around Appomattox will be sure to get you a bird. In fact all the birds from Bath Co. and Craig Co. recently migrated to Appomattox - repeat NO BIRDS IN BATH CO. or CRAIG CO. this spring.
Anyway, good luck. Wish I could help, but humor is about all I can add on this subject.

I hunted in Appomattox Saturday and Monday and the birds have been tight lipped on the farm. I talked to a guy Monday and he said that he and his father have killed 3 so far, so they can be gotten, but you'll have to work to get them. The weather has also left a lot to be desired, so it could be that the past few days I hunted over there, the rain shut down the gobbling activity.
