Title: Got skunked in Montana
Post by: Gooserbat on May 30, 2023, 10:49:04 AM
Yep, didn't take a bird in Montana, Cousin Keefton did though.  We both did get one in WA and ID.  Had a great trip saw lots of critters that we don't have in Oklahoma (moose) and I rode in a plane for the first time.

Congrats on a great trip. Those birds & the landscape are beautiful. No big deal on getting skunked. I should have a white stripe down my back by now.

Congratulations on your hunts. Always good to hunt unfamiliar territory in other states.

Sounds like a great trip even so Sam. Beautiful country. And, it gives you an excuse to go back. Z

Congrats on your western gobblers. I got skunked in Montana as well. Brother Jesse got one though. We were there 3 days and a wakeup. Beautiful country though. Loved it.

Nice!   I'm from Boise and remember talking to you over the phone 1 or 2 years ago asking for your advice on mouth calls (which was spot on, by the way!). You asked me a few questions about turkeys out this way and that you were thinking about a trip. Glad you made it happen!

When I read the title, I was hoping for a good story about how a skunk actually sprayed you....   And how you dealt with the odor...

Glad you had a good trip (and did not literally get "skunked")
