I gave up spring turkey hunting because the tics for the last 10 to 15 years have taken over central/northern Wisconsin.....not quite as bad in the fall but like to wait for a couple hard frosts....and really prefer to hunt grouse in western Wisconsin these days....not as many birds but fewer tics....and hunt phez in SE Wisconsin with far fewer.....don't remember tics being no where near as bad from my youth [60s] into the late 90s....
