Title: How many of you are like me?
Post by: WVhuntEER on January 25, 2013, 01:32:20 PM
The snow is flying and the anticipation is growing.   I keep getting Spring magazines from Macks Prairie Wings, Bass Pro,  Midwest Turkey ect. and the urge to get a some new gear hits me once again!    I don't really need anything but I always find things I want.  Yep, this time of year is always hard on my wallet. LOL  :funnyturkey:

I Dont need things right now, but I seem to be buying more big ticket items than ever. I just need to be in the turkey woods to take my mind off things. Hurry up spring time.

happens to me too, looked at a burris fast fire III a couple times online without buying one.  Ordered it yesterday-- don't need it, but I bet I'll like having it.

Getting new stuff is half the fun of turkey hunting.
We may be not half the fun, but it's fun.......

I guess I'm the same but different in a way. I keep looking at different states and adding up expenses to see if I can get more tags lol.Forget the new gear just make sure you have tags,shells,maps,shotgun/bow,and gas/motel money.

I look forward to spring like a kid does Xmas morning - getting all the gear figured out is easy , overcrowding in the woods seems to take the magic out of it at times

This betwix and between time, with deer season over in Ohio and Turkey Season 2 months away, is making me nuts.  It seems like the only way to somewhat pacify my need to be out there hunting is to hunt for gear on line, and research gear on line, and then buy gear on line......  :fud:

Not that I needed it, but I did get a new turkey vest from wing supply. They had a Super Elite III on close out, I think I paid $34 including shipping. Got me a new .22 bolt action set-up for fun too. Just got the scope for it this week, haven't taken it to the range yet.

Yep, me too!  Just when I think I have everything I need I find something else.  Thank God hunting is my only vice!

Yep.. That's me as well. I don't need anything. However, I'm thinking of a new choke tube. That will also turn into some shells. Then I can do some shootin. ;D  The preparation leading up too the season is just awesome. Especially right here on OG!

Not so much yet. Been pretty cold lately.

A few warm days here and there and I find myself daydreaming about hearing the years first gobbles.  ;D

Same for me.  Other than a few new mouth calls, my money is stashed away for out of state trips.  Fuel, food, license, etc. ....it's not cheap even when you poor boy it like we do every year.  It is easy this te of year to get the blood boiling thinking about chasing turkeys.
