Title: Calling All GOATS!
Post by: GobbleNut on February 10, 2024, 08:44:01 AM
All you GOATs out there,...time to butt some heads and take some names...and mostly give all the other teams the "2024 What-For"!   Feel free to check in here...and feel freer to start "head bangin'" all the other teams at will (good naturedly, of course).  ;D

Recognizing that last year's contest results were an anomaly and that we are most likely going to be at the top of the "heap" again this year when the smoke clears, our number one goal beyond that obvious result is to not let anybody on the other teams "out-trash-talk" us!   ;D :D 

Most of the team has already checked in on the old 2023 contest section.  For those that haven't, let us know if you are still out there in cyber space and are planning on playing...   :icon_thumright:

Jiffy pop and yodel have already started slinging little pebbles at us from their side of the fence. No worries though, by April I will be in peak wrasslin shape and these other teams are gonna feel like a chicken caught in a tractors nuts.

:D :D ...Not sure where he is.  Sent him a pm a few days ago and have not heard back.  Hoping he just hasn't been on recently due to other distractions, but it does raise a bit of concern.  ...Can't afford to lose one of our best trash talkers for the contest.  We might not be able to keep up with you guys!   ;D :D

Good luck trying to sign him.  The contract he wanted with the GOATS was significantly higher than we could afford.  We added up all of our "discretionary funds" and came up with five dollars and eighty-three cents.  He would settle for nothing less than six. We had to reluctantly let him go...   ;D

I heard they went all in on GPS, thinking that it stood for GOAT Positioning system. With it, they hoped to find the secret to our profound wisdom, advanced physical abilities, good-looks, freakishly amazing woodsmanship, and overall appeal to the general public. Results haven't been good for them. However, Jiffy Pop has a garbage bag full of oatmeal cream pie wrappers that he refers to as "evidence" that they are on the right track.

Don't tell Jeff, because he doesn't know sabatticals are shape shifters. He'll take that gal home just thinking she smells a little different and he'll wake up with a head ache and  all his creme pies eaten and his shorts missing, no sweetheart in site. Of course the goats could have warned him, but these hard headed younguns just gotta learn in the hard way.

Well jiffypop, Sams club has the best turkey deal, but they throw away the beards and spurs....dang the luck

As for the calls, I wish I knew where they were. I have not received them yet. I was told they would be coming soon but I have not seen them yet. I'm getting pretty anxious.

Appreciate the offer, Jiffy Pop. Us GOATS are too smart for that, though. The gobblers in GOAT country have started roosting in caves and trying to be nocturnal out of fear. Rumor has it that they have already started breeding. They know that for many, they won't make it till the end of spring and are trying to get their fun before they meet their fate.

Oh poor Jiffy Pop, never seeing the true picture. That is a decoy, it's not turkey season so we're practicing on pythons (or worms if you want). It's amazing what/who falls for our subtle tricks, even gullible people on forums. Just imagine how much trouble gobblers are about to be in.

I think big balls by AC/DC is more GOATLY.
However, you scattered flockers should adapt the " let it go" theme. Y'all will never be as good-looking, knowledgeable, and charismatic as the GOATS. I will be clear that I am the best looking of the group though.

I am hip to what's up. I've been prepping for the annual upcoming GOAT 2025 calendar shoot. While I was on the treadmill, I came across a Night and Hale video called ultimate spring. They lied. I figured that somehow, they had video footage of me when they decided to go with that title. That's false advertisement at its finest.

Good to see you back, buddy.  I was beginning to worry that the champion trash talker from last year's contest had retired (although Jeff has been doing a great job in your absence).  As for me, I am around, but my teammates have been doing such a fine job with our usual harassment strategy that I haven't felt the need to jump in.  Besides, my trash talking is not on the same level as some of the guys on both of our teams!   ;D :D

Title: Re: Calling All GOATS!
Post by: Happy on March 09, 2024, 08:42:21 PM
Well, here is my best effort typing with hooves.
One morning many years ago, I was headed to one of my favorite spots to turkey hunt. This was my first hunt of the year and I was about to learn a lesson the hard way. Typically I would sneak in quietly and be seated about 125 yards from where the gobblers liked to roost if they were in the area. I was in position when the first gobble cut loose and it caught me by surprise. Not only was it behind and across the field from me but it sounded like about a half-dozen of them. It was already getting light but I reacted in my typical cat-like manner and made a graceful 300 yard dash across the wide open field to get on the same side as them. This is a big field. Probably 1000 yards long by 300 yards wide. It would have taken me a while to stay in the woods and go around. Somehow i made it undetected and was now on the same side as them and about 250 yards away. Cutting the distance to about 125 yards I was running out of cover and was going to get picked off if I continued. They were still in the tree, roosted in a little peninsula of trees that jutted into the field, just tearing it up. with the landscape being what it was and the amount of turkeys I was hearing, I would have swore I was in Texas. Except these were manly gobbles and not the typical Rio whimpy gobble. Taking a quick survey of the landscape, I backed up a tick to use a slight swell in the field to my advantage. They would have to crest that swell to see my calling position and it would put them at about 40 yards of my mossberg loaded with 3.5" #6 hevi-shot. As soon as I got situated I started calling and I gave them everything I had. I could hear hens in the mix and knew that my only hope was to sound like I had a party going on as well. When the turkeys started coming out of the trees, it was a sight to behold. I just caught flashes of them between the trees and the swell in front of me. It was a typical early-spring mixed flock and I could hear plenty of bickering and jockeying among the flock with an occasional gobble thrown in. I kept picking away and soon I had at least one gobbler responding. I caught two fans breaking the crest of the hill and got my gun up.           

Here is a flashback....
A few days before this I was checking the zero of my red dot. I fired a round and it was a tick further left than I liked so I gave it a few clicks to the right and called it good. I never fired a confirmation shot. This is round 1 of where I got to pay for that mistake.

The two gobblers crested the hill in full strut and then deflated, stretching their necks up and looking for that hen that they knew they should see. I settled the red dot on the neck of the gobbler on the right (thank goodness) and took my shot. He hit the dirt, flopping and a just sat there for a second and then stood up and started to collect my pot call and striker, as well as put my seat cushion back in place. For some reason, I glanced behind me to check on him and was very startled to see him getting his legs under him and starting to make a break for it. I quickly racked another shell and proceeded to roll him again just as he was getting a good head of steam. Thinking it was over I finished my initial task and started walking towards him. This is where he got his legs under him again. Racking my final round,  I belted him once again with my final round. Taking no chances, I started to him quickly and he once again got his legs under him and the race was on..
I discarded the gun gently for the situation, as it was useless for anything other than blunt force trauma, and hit top racing speed. It was a fantastic hundred yard dash that ended with me making a diving, open field tackle that then resulted in a wrestling match. I managed to get my hands around his neck while getting spurred and beat in quite a lively fashion. I wound up winning the fight but he definitely made a good accounting of himself. You would have thought after this that i would have gone home and checked the zero of my gun. Nope, It took me missing another gobbler a few days later at 25 yards to realize that it was shooting way right and I was lucky, or unlucky, enough to get a few pellets from the left side of the pattern to connect at all. So in closing, please verify your guns are sighted in. This may save some suffering on the turkeys end and keep some dignity on the shooters end.

I have to say very enjoyable and well written, I'd give it 5 thumb ups.  :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:

Well, here is my best effort typing with hooves.
One morning many years ago, I was headed to one of my favorite spots to turkey hunt. This was my first hunt of the year and I was about to learn a lesson the hard way. Typically I would sneak in quietly and be seated about 125 yards from where the gobblers liked to roost if they were in the area. I was in position when the first gobble cut loose and it caught me by surprise. Not only was it behind and across the field from me but it sounded like about a half-dozen of them. It was already getting light but I reacted in my typical cat-like manner and made a graceful 300 yard dash across the wide open field to get on the same side as them. This is a big field. Probably 1000 yards long by 300 yards wide. It would have taken me a while to stay in the woods and go around. Somehow i made it undetected and was now on the same side as them and about 250 yards away. Cutting the distance to about 125 yards I was running out of cover and was going to get picked off if I continued. They were still in the tree, roosted in a little peninsula of trees that jutted into the field, just tearing it up. with the landscape being what it was and the amount of turkeys I was hearing, I would have swore I was in Texas. Except these were manly gobbles and not the typical Rio whimpy gobble. Taking a quick survey of the landscape, I backed up a tick to use a slight swell in the field to my advantage. They would have to crest that swell to see my calling position and it would put them at about 40 yards of my mossberg loaded with 3.5" #6 hevi-shot. As soon as I got situated I started calling and I gave them everything I had. I could hear hens in the mix and knew that my only hope was to sound like I had a party going on as well. When the turkeys started coming out of the trees, it was a sight to behold. I just caught flashes of them between the trees and the swell in front of me. It was a typical early-spring mixed flock and I could hear plenty of bickering and jockeying among the flock with an occasional gobble thrown in. I kept picking away and soon I had at least one gobbler responding. I caught two fans breaking the crest of the hill and got my gun up.           

Here is a flashback....
A few days before this I was checking the zero of my red dot. I fired a round and it was a tick further left than I liked so I gave it a few clicks to the right and called it good. I never fired a confirmation shot. This is round 1 of where I got to pay for that mistake.

The two gobblers crested the hill in full strut and then deflated, stretching their necks up and looking for that hen that they knew they should see. I settled the red dot on the neck of the gobbler on the right (thank goodness) and took my shot. He hit the dirt, flopping and a just sat there for a second and then stood up and started to collect my pot call and striker, as well as put my seat cushion back in place. For some reason, I glanced behind me to check on him and was very startled to see him getting his legs under him and starting to make a break for it. I quickly racked another shell and proceeded to roll him again just as he was getting a good head of steam. Thinking it was over I finished my initial task and started walking towards him. This is where he got his legs under him again. Racking my final round,  I belted him once again with my final round. Taking no chances, I started to him quickly and he once again got his legs under him and the race was on..
I discarded the gun gently for the situation, as it was useless for anything other than blunt force trauma, and hit top racing speed. It was a fantastic hundred yard dash that ended with me making a diving, open field tackle that then resulted in a wrestling match. I managed to get my hands around his neck while getting spurred and beat in quite a lively fashion. I wound up winning the fight but he definitely made a good accounting of himself. You would have thought after this that i would have gone home and checked the zero of my gun. Nope, It took me missing another gobbler a few days later at 25 yards to realize that it was shooting way right and I was lucky, or unlucky, enough to get a few pellets from the left side of the pattern to connect at all. So in closing, please verify your guns are sighted in. This may save some suffering on the turkeys end and keep some dignity on the shooters end.

No Hap I don't think I was up that late, the orderlies usually come around and check on us a couple times a night and I also need my beauty sleep too (or for what's left of my cognitive functions to work a little anyway) My time stamp is probably off as much as my humor, I think I'm the only SF team member west of the Mississippi so we're at least a couple hours difference. At about 10:30 pm the last thing I sent was to Zobo and his team "The Trapdoor Long Johns", since I thought the new team needs a little heckling too.

Not a 1oo% sure but I may have used the old walls of an "outhouse" one time as a hide from a roosted Tom. Old farm house that was partially collapsed, had small out building off to one side, may have been a shed or outhouse? Either way didnt work, Tom went the other way.

This meme is taken directly from The Brothers Grimm fairytales that my mother use to read me when I was a child. If anything is being implied here it's not being implied by me. If GobbleNut finds this offensive all he has to do is ask and I'll remove it. I've added a link to the story below if anyone else cares to also read it to their children.

Thnx Lacire. I wouldn't have popped your balloon, but it was MIchigan football colors and that just can't fly for a buckeye. Would you like a creme pie to cheer you up?

There's a lesson to be learned there ....JIm Croce said it best in a song, you don't pull on superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind and you don't mess around with Jim (Jim is synonymous with GOATS, since Jim is our captain). So keep it up and see. Fortunately we take our frustrations out on gobblers.

It's sometimes theorized that us GOATS are part turkey. My youngest boy has another theory. After several years of watching my ability to get really close to wild animals and also having domestic animals just gravitate to me, he has officially dubbed me a "Disney Princess."

You are good looking, Happy! I'd say more cute than handsome, but you're free to identify however you choose to.  :icon_thumright: :TooFunny:

I'm glad some people can appreciate my good looks. However, I look nothing like that goat. I am not cute, I am ruggedly handsome and considered a man among men. Chuck Norris calls me sir, and Jennifer Anniston is still trying to find a suitable replacement for me after i broke up with her around 20 years ago.

I tracked that zebra for 33 miles then jumped on it with a knife to get the hide for that outfit so there is that. Too bad the hide wasn't big enough to make you a suit too.

Oh Lacire, if you only knew how you have revived an old thread from a different forum many years ago. Gobblenut has a long and old reputation for lobbing mortars at gobblers. That boat that sunk was the USS Gobbler Destroyer, he converted into a cruise ship before it sank.
