Title: Welcome, my brothers and sisters!
Post by: FullChoke on January 17, 2014, 11:09:38 PM
I am thrilled to be back this year for another Old Gobbler Turkey Contest and proud to be representing another strong team of Gobbler Ninja-Assassins-Hitmen-Executioners! I am also glad to introduce our first 20 gauge totin', steely-eyed lady Grim Reaper to our ranks: Camocutie! BTW, she has a Dead-Turkey-Victory-Dance that simply must be seen.

I want to take a few moments to stress how important it is to our team to score, photograph and post every turkey that you take this year, even if it does not represent an upgrade of a previous bird. Also, please consider writing out the particulars on your interesting hunts in the story section. I know that I love to read about your victories and misses, and I suspect that I am not the only one. There is an incredible reservoir of woodsmanship, knowledge and skill in this team that can be used to help make us all better turkey hunters.

I will post up all of the needed information and threads in the following few days to help get each of us back up to speed and working together.

Guys and gals, let The Roaring 20's Roar!

 :z-guntootsmiley:   I've been thinking about the 2014 turkey contest since thanksgiving. Thanks for letting me be apart of the 20's again. Fullchoke you do an awesome job keeping up with everything and keeping us informed of what is going on and by the way I can't wait to see the dead turkey victory dance posted! -Mike

Folks,

I will give the remaining people about a week to get back to me and then we will start looking for other 20 gaugers to join our merry band of pranksters. I have one new hunter on deck right now. If anyone presently on the 2014 team knows, and can endorse, someone who loves to hunts these turkeys with the smaller guns and would be a good, active member, let me know. I will start filling the remaining slots this Friday.

Go team.

I am glad to be back for 2014,it doesn't even seem like turkey season if I'm not part of the Roaring 20's Team on Old Gobbler.
Looking forward to being a part of the hunting with all of you this season.
Come on March 15th

Thanks for the acceptance into this Elite group. ;D

I have been a dedicated 20ga turkey hunter for several years and wanted to get in this group when it first opened but it filled fast.
I hunted with the WidowMakers last two contests and they are a fine bunch of guys but I always felt like I belonged here with my fellow 20ga shooters.

I am not new to Old Gobbler and you will see my posts in 20ga guns, optics, and pattern posts.
I have three trail cameras out on my hunting land and hope all the turkeys I saw during deer season stay around. I will problem check them in the next week or so and then it is time to shoot the 20ga a little just to be sure it and I am ready for March.

"I'll do my best for ya'll, and hope I don't let you down."

If you're honest and ethical and give it your best;filled tag or goose egg;you wont be letting us down.

IMO,you'll soon find out;at least for The Roarin' 20's;this is about more than the just the kill(but try to kill as many bigguns you legally can :z-guntootsmiley:)

Dang, small world we live in.  My Grandfathers farm (full of turkeys too), is in Bunker Hill, near Columbia, MS.
We used to live in Crystal Springs, near Hazelhurst when I was very young.
