if you play it backwards it sounds like the carpenters singing muskrat love

LOL......but it was "Captain & Tennille"



Captain and Tennille needed more cow bell.

It was written and performed by Willis Alan Ramsey, and is my favorite version.


Years ago, word on the street in Nashville was the big exec's put pressure on Willy and Waylon to record 
Muskrat Love.

I for one was glad they refused and started the whole outlaw movement.

 I'm trying to unsee the mental picture of Willy and Waylon singing Muskrat Love.

     Gene Nunnery would be spinning in his grave to read about Corn Trench Baiting.
  What is next- send up a Drone at Sunset to find out where Gobblers are Roosting- " Back of Beyond"!

Wasn't Ol' Gene the one that wrote the book "Trot Linin' for Turkeys"?  Could be wrong about that, though.  He might not have known Nunnery about it...   ;D ::) :happy0167: :funnyturkey:

Hmm. I figure a good strafing run with a drone down a corn trench could be quite effective.

3 makes sense, it's very hard to keep an eye on that 4th one behind you.

That makes sense.

Each one 40 yards long? Or should one make them 25 yards long so as to "bring them in close?"




25yds should do it, according to the KPY program the preferred #8 dove load runs out of juice around 33yds, 40 would be stretching it even if pulling both triggers on an old Fox

Can't believe no one has brought up the special needs to design both gobbler and hen trenches.  Getting them separate is key.  The old time mountain poach...I mean .... hunters I grew up around also said a separate jake trench was doable. Not sure about that one .... those guys did stretch it abit on occasion.
