Title: I am hooked
Post by: SumToy on March 27, 2011, 06:13:38 PM
well I have had the guys around the shop all the time that ask me about going turkey hunting.  This was the 1st year I killed ducks and yesterday was the 1st time I was in the woods to kill a turkey.   I know it sounds odd that with what I do that I had never gone.   Now I see what it is about.  Did not have much going on around this weekend.  Folks all say it was slow but I did get to hear them and see them.  So look out I will be looking for a day off now. lol :z-guntootsmiley:

Ben Rogers Lee says that turkey hunting is a disease.
If they ever find a cure for it I hope the wife is slow to hear about it.

i love chasin turkeys just because the turkey woods arent as crowded as the deer woods are and it takes skill to kill a turkey and i've seen way to many people who have no business deer hunting or even handling a gun period running around the deer woods and you usually dont get those people chasing turkeys

There's nothing like being in the woods at first light when everything starts to wake up !!! And It's really fun when your set-up about 75yds from a Thunder Chicken !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you kill a big one for your first bird !! :anim_25:

Dont think so William.. We have a long list of things for you to do... First, figure out the HW in the 12 gauge in all guns.. Than figure out how to get the xtended range 1 3/4 to consistently put up numbers with H 13 2oz 6s so folks can get a consistent shell.. Third, figure out how to shorten the shot string without flyers.

See their is no time for you to be in the woods..


J/K welcome to the addiction
