Wandering around the OG forum, I noticed a post by Guesswho from way back in August that I had not seen before. With my normal exceptional high level of astuteness and attentiveness, I am shocked that it has taken me six months to see it....NOT. As we draw nigh the spring season, I felt that I, being the not-yet-deposed team captain, should present it under the GOATS team forum such that all of us could try to catch up with our training. I am sure Ronnie is, by now, in tip-top shape having had a half-year head start,...at least on me!
Here is his training schedule: (Use it wisely, but don't overdo it! I don't want any team members getting injured and unable to participate in defending our crown!)
...And I quote:
"It's most turkeys hunters dream to one day be a GOAT. It ain't easy. Very little downtime before we have to start our intense training regiment in order to stay on top of our game. We have had a couple months off, but time to get busy. Starting now (tomorrow) my Special High Intensity Training starts. I recommend my fellow GOATS do the same. Starting tomorrow and for the remainder of August my routine will be as follows. No more sleeping late.
August- Out of bed by noon
September- out by 11:30
October- out by 11:00
November- out by 10:30
December- out by 10:00
January- out by 9:30
February- out by 9:00
March -out by 8:30 (My Spring Opener)
This training really pays off. By opening day of season we will be finely tuned to get after them bright and early, 8:30ish, give or take based on what time you went to bed the night before. I can tell I'm out of shape. I got sleepy putting this regiment together. Going to take a nap, I've been up almost four hours already. But by March I'll be a lean and mean turkey killing GOAT!"
