Title: Another Million $ Question
Post by: guesswho on February 19, 2021, 10:33:32 AM
Playing off the other million dollar bet thread.   Same scenario.  One day to kill a gobbler at a predetermined property.  But this time it's for two person teams only.   Can be anyone living.   Who do you take as your million dollar partner to kill that gobbler?

Who am I taking?

Guess who

Either that or a nut.

In reality one of my two oldest hunting buddies. I wouldn't want an experience like to be with anyone else other than those who have already spent a lifetime hunting with me....oh yeah the bird would still be just as much in jeopardy, their both pretty good at it.

Good choice, but it's only $1M, not $1M per bird.   So the other 15 dead gobblers wouldn't net you anymore money.

Mom of course!   I figure after the bird saw us pull up and get out he would waive the white flag and just walk up to us and kill himself.

Now if one of the conditions becomes, "someone you've never hunted with before," my answer is simple: the Rev. Zach Farmer.

My grandad. He doesn't really hunt anymore. One more hunt would be worth the money even if unsuccessful.

My buddy's 12yr old son.....I'm betting he hasn't spent much over an hour to kill his 1st 3 longbeards.  They just seem to run into him and he is flat death to them.  It's crazy.

I know a couple of fellows (one is my cousin) that I would just send out and not even worry about getting out of bed and just give them my acct number to deposit the money.


My cousin is a great caller and hunter, the other fellow (friend of ours) is what I would call a master turkey killer that helped my cousin along the way, who helped me along the way.

I'd probably take one of several good friends, especially if it's a sure thing. My first thought was Guesswho though.

I would take my Dad for one more hunt if he was still with us. Bird killed, money in pocket or not.

Next best option would be Guesswho's Mom! She is stone cold when it comes to swackin birds. I figure he would HAVE to tag along and I would get 2 killers for the price of one! And if he inherited his "charm" from her.... what a day we would have! LOL!

I'd give up the million to have another hunt with my dad, our last hunt was in 2006, he is still "with" me on every hunt though. We put down a lot of birds together over the years too.

Most guys say it's not about the killing, although in this case, it would be. But old tom doesn't know it's a million-dollar hunt and he doesn't care. So there is a chance I'm going home empty-handed. If I hunt with someone I hope I learn something,they are a good storyteller, and I would want to hunt with them again. Mine would be Dick Kirby

I'm taking my bestest turkey huntin' buddy in the world.

My daughter, Pickle.

Befor you say, "Oh......how sweet !! "    Girl knows how to kill turkeys.  She's the iciest person on the trigger with a bird in front of her as I've seen.  She knows set up.  And she's better on a box call than 95% of the "old guys" I've ever hunted with.  Her and I.........we kill birds.  And Dad let's her do as much of the work as she wants to.  And, at the end of the day.........if we DIDN'T punch a tag..........we had a GREAT TIME !!!!!!!!

If his head has been cryogenically preserved, I would want to borrow Dwain Bland's brain for the hunt. He forgot more about turkey hunting and killing than most of us will even come close to knowing. To me he would be the turkey hunter equivalent of Thomas Jefferson, who JFK when addressing the Nobel Prize Winners at a dinner at the White house, said-"I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone. Yep, I'd take Dwain Bland's brain--turkey killing machine.
