General Forum / Re: Yinz need in on THIS !!!

Last post by Yoder409 - December 18, 2025, 12:29:44 PM

Just a random side musing.......

I was discussing turkey books with a fellow the other day.

I was late to the party on a bunch of them for various reasons.

Mickel's first book
The Neil Cost trilogy
Neil Cost: Magic With Wood
Most Perfect (the Lynch book)

All were limited runs.  All cost me a lot more to buy AFTER the fact than had I gotten in on the initial offerings.  A WHOLE LOT MORE.

If you even THINK this book interests you......GRAB ONE !!!  If it's a keeper for you, you got it as cheap as you ever will.  If you decide to not keep it....you will, likely, get more for it than you paid.  Just sayin'

If you are using longbeards I love the Patternmaster Code Black Turkey choke. If you are using TSS, it is hard to beat the IC . I don't know why you would need TSS in a 12 gauge, but you pay for them so  it's your call, lol. Z

What time on Thursday the 8th is the "official" opening of the doors? I think it was 2 or 3 last year, but the doors were open well before that from my recollection.

I've got just a few things I want to get and can't make it on the 9th or 10th.

Show opens at 3:00 PM, I believe.

I do.

Both my SX2 and SX3 really like the IC Black Diamond Strike with Winchester LBXR shells.  I used the 3.5" with 2 oz. of shot.

Didn't matter which shot size... 4's 5's or 6's.... the pattern uniformity was the same.  I didn't even count the 6's in the 10" at 40 (turned out to be 43) yards.  I just shook my head and kept saying "Holy CRAP !!"

I shot the 5's and 4's out to 60 yards just to see.  5's in the 10" @ 60 yds were 105.  4's in the 10" @ 60 were 65. 

Farthest I shot a bird with that setup was like 37 or 38 yards and I chose the 6's.  They were DEVASTATINGLY effective !!!
