Title: Favorite hunting buddy?
Post by: scott ellis on February 28, 2012, 07:45:46 PM
Who is your favorite person or person's to hunt with?  Mine would be my dad and my little boy Jake.  I have a couple of great friends that I have been hunting with for nearly 20 years and I only get to see them a couple times of year, I truly cherish my time in the woods with all of them.

It is no doubt my son. He is 23 and has killed 37 turkeys and 3 different subspecies. He hasn't forked out the money to hunt FL yet. Cherish your time with your son Scott it just gets better.

Favorite would be tough to hang my hat on. . . .

My right hand man for years gotta new job, saw the $$, plus engagement and he's not so available anymore but we shared some good times.

My brother will always be a favorite, can't wait til he's in a position to travel a bit more.

And ole Mark K, been finding myself paired up with him quite a bit on the travels and his enthusiasm is unmatched.

Myself, I have a couple friends that go with me once in a while but I'd rather be by myself when turkey hunting. My kids are to young to hunt, but hopefully my daughter will be ready next spring.

That would be my brother, hands down.. He taught me how to hunt turkeys, and how to run a pot call. It is a pleasure having him beside me.. I have an Uncle and a few cousins that I have tutored, and they are great companions, as well.

My dad. We started turkey hunting at the same time when our county opened their first turkey season. We have our ups and downs on our hunts and don't always agree, but we share some awesome memories while hunting together. I'd rather call him up a longbeard then call one in for myself.

Since I doubt my wife will read this, I'm gonna say my son. I have enjoyed spending time with him in the woods since he was big enough to walk. I love watching him learn more each year and try to teach him as much as possible. He is 15 now and loves going with his old man. I just hope them girly girls dont start distracting him too bad. I'm hoping we can both tag out in Missouri this year.

Now my wife on the other hand loves to deer hunt and I absolutely love spending time with her in the box stand. I get the shakes more than she does when she kills a deer. Nothing like that adrenaline rush when your watching someone else pull the trigger.

I've shared great hunts and hunting trips with my dad, my brother, and a couple of close friends.  Now, my son is 7 and wants to go more, so he is quickly becoming my new favorite.  On his first real trip last spring we pulled up to the spot 30 minutes before daylight and after about a minute of sitting in the truck he said, "Ok dad, where's the turkeys?".  I thought, "wow, he doesn't expect much."

Used to be my dad but he is older now (78) and gave up hunting  a few years ago. Now my favorite hunting buddy is my 13 year old son. He bagged his first deer last fall and hopefully I can get him on a gobbler this spring.

It would have to be my best friend Joey Anderson, he seems to show the same passion for turkey hunting as I do.

I usually only deer hunt with my wife.
I usually only fish with a friend, John Frist.
I hunt turkeys only with my best friend Bruce, (yellow acorns)
But Bruce and I hunt rabbits and everything else plus varmints and morels.
True friends are such a blessing.

Really don't have one right now. GobblerD would be hands down if he didn't live so far away, and we had the opportunity to hunt together more.  ;D The man cracks me up. Hunting with my new wife this year, so have the feeling I now have a new hunting favorite.

I really don't have a turkey hunting buddy.  I've been with people but I'm kind of a loaner in the turkey woods.  I hope to get my wife into it next year, her schedule is not allowing it this year.  I got her into deer hunting this year and I absolutely love taking her and trying to teach her.  I can't wait to have a son to teach.  I love spending time with my dad.  We don't "hunt" together anymore but we do the camp thing.  Working on stands etc.  He's not a turkey hunter.  My all around best hunting buddy and fishing buddy, probably just about the only fishing buddy I've ever had, best friend growing up, and college roommate was taken from us about 2.5 years ago in a car crash.  He could catch a fish in a mud hole I promise you.  Times in the woods and spring time when fishing is really rolling around are some of times I miss him the most.  He taught me more about hunting, fishing, and the outdoors than any other one person on this planet.  Man I miss him.

My dad without a doubt. i would not be a hunter if it was not for him. He never seemed to get into turkey hunting, but I still would like to get him a gobbler one of these days. He just needs to learn to get up early enough and not be so busy all the time.
