Open it up to .562 or .570 is what I prefer.  Excellent, even patterns.  Sumtoy or IC.

This. I have a .570 Sumtoy and it is perfect

General Forum / Re: Chene light rubber boots

Last post by patternfreak - Today at 08:54:55 AM

I've had them since last turkey season. I hunted all turkey season in them last year and deer hunted in them a good bit this year. I love how comfortable they are. Don't get it twisted though, they're not hiking boots. Hunting in the mountains they will wear out the back of your foot. Hunting flat ground they are fine.

Mine also won't zip up all the way on my legs without being uncomfortably tight. I have no issues with other zip boots.

The camo has worn off of mine on the top of the boots at the toe. I'll probably hunt them one more season and then send them back to be replaced.

Turkey Guns / Re: New Salt Creek TSSxLead

Last post by TooTallOutdoorss - Today at 08:43:47 AM

Shot string doesn't matter at all on a stationary target no matter the speed. Wingshooting is a different matter. Duplexing lead and TSS is not a new thing. I, and many other handloaders, have been doing it for many, many years. This Salt Creek offering may be the first commercially available option. With the price of TSS going through the roof, it is not a bad option.

That is what I had thought. Its not as powerful/effective as plain old tss right? Not trying to start a war with that questions lol. I mean in the sense that it doesnt have as much tss as a pure tss #9 shell. So it would theoretically have less shot hitting a bird at further distances say 40yds.

Turkey Hunting Tips ,Strategies & Methods / Re: Never Fail Terrain Feature...

Last post by bbcoach - Today at 08:24:12 AM

Agree there is no spot that won't fail, but I will take my chances on controlled burns done before the season any day.

I agree with this statement.  Controlled burns in planted pines that have had good early spring rains and are greening up nice are a Great place to hunt.  Great feeding areas!  I also like a large open area in heavy woods on a ridge top that a gobbler can use for a Strut Zone and can be seen and heard, for a great distance.  Or a 2 track at the top of a ridge line or high vantage point.
