Quote from: arkrem870 on February 06, 2026, 07:10:25 AMIt's kinda scary what this data actually shows....this draw actually drew/recruited more hunters than YouTube ever did. I hope other states are paying attention.

There was a significant drop in the number of applications this year. I think people are finding out Mississippi in March isn't as easy as some videos can make it out to be.

When the number of non-resident turkey permit sales and March 7-day license sales doubles in about 3 years (2019-2021), and the bulk of those new non-resident hunters are going to public land, a state owes it to its resident hunters to do something about it. So no, the draw didn't increase the jump in demand we saw from 2019-2021 because it didn't even exist.
Let me make sure I understand you correctly, are you saying it was another record year for WMA draw applications, but a significant drop in OOS Public Land permit applications?
Correct. The NR Open Public draw had about 500 less applications.
Roger that

Push Pin Turkey Calls / Re: Be advised
Last post by zelmo1 - February 06, 2026, 02:03:30 PM
Family comes first. Take care of those that take care of you. I have every type of game calls that Shannon makes. I have seen it first hand when I finally got a call for myself and posted pics of it, my selfish pride and inner child won out. Some one offered me stupid money and I respectfully declined. These turkey calls will be passed down in my family or in my casket. And his  duck calls sound sweeter than honey. Thank you for being a craftsman Shannon. Z

20 Gauge Turkey Guns / Mossberg sa-20 with longbeard ...
Last post by Kygobblergetter - February 06, 2026, 01:27:02 PM
Has anybody set one up with longbeards? Or any other lead load for that matter. I load my own tss but I want to mess around with some lead loads for hunting around home. Is it realistic to expect a 40 yard pattern out of the 20 with lead?
