Lurker from Mississippi
« on: October 27, 2018, 11:26:37 AM »
Howdy guys!  Been lurking on the site for a while so figured I'd post and share some of my photos from this springs harvests! 

Killed my first turkey in the Arkansas ozarks about 20 years ago and then hit my prime teenage/college years and had a hiatus for quite a few years then about 5-6 years ago really got back into it and have been having a blast since!  My first hunt 20 years ago didn't really hook me because it was a classic textbook hunt.........setup, called a little and was shot before the sun broke the horizon.  I thought turkey hunting was too easy, just seemed kinda boring....little did I know!

The past few years I've only harvested one bird per year just due to being a new father with a young one, 2017 I didn't harvest a single bird but was able to get my 11 year old neice her first one which was an awesome experience!  But spring 2018 was the first time I was ever able to tag out in Mississippi, which was a blessing due getting access to 2500 acres of private land and getting to put more time in. Was a blast and can't wait til next year!

As of right now I've only hunted Arkansas and Mississippi but hoping in 2019 to possible venture to TN, KY and AL.

Here are a few turkey's my dad and I harvested this 2018 spring here in Mississippi.
