Quote from: FL-Boss on July 31, 2021, 08:24:09 PMX2 ... with everything leaning more and more left/woke... I wouldn't worry about YouTube much. I suspect anything related to guns and hunting to be banned from YouTube in the near future. I don't hunt public and don't have a dog in this fight.. but if you want to blame something, blame the hunt apps like OnX, etc. That really ruined it for so many local guys that had their favorite public land honey holes..Quote from: turkeyfool on July 31, 2021, 07:56:03 PMAs kind of a side note, with the way bannings are going in non-hunting spaces, I actually wouldn't at all be surprised if they banned hunting from YouTube within 2 years

Quote from: turkeyfool on July 31, 2021, 09:15:17 PMYeah I mean I see both sides when it comes to OnX. Overall I think it's a great app. It's been a lifesaver for me not only scouting but also even just getting out of the woods or driving around areas without service. It's certainly gotten more popular because of YouTube but I'm not sure that OnX in itself has been the fault of declining populations. It's just a factor. I think you'll also find more guys in the south are ticked about the travelling turkey hunting deal than the northern states

Like they said one call is not going to do it.They've destroyed our seasons n Alabama Tennessee and Georgia. I suggest they charge fees for videoing on public grounds. I'm thankful for these guys bringing this podcast to a larger audience for discussion. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Sent from my SM-G950U using TapatalkI've hunted Alabama and Tennessee quite a bit, and they haven't destroyed anything. Maybe been a little slow to change regulations, but the hunting is still good. Several years back it was legal to kill 6 hens per county in Tennessee during the fall season. I killed a few and had fun, but I'm glad they did away with that. It's not as bad as y'all would like to think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I thought I was selfish till I saw some of the stuff posted on forums....I understand it sucks seeing more people in your woods every year, but it's not just the woods, it's the whole country and the whole world. Human population keeps going up, hunter population needs to keep going up if we want any say in the future of hunting. Yea it sucks bag limits will go down and seasons will shorten, but it is what it is. Let's just enjoy what we got, life is still good. I've heard more good than bad about the turkey hatch this year, so there's something to be positive about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ProI would genuinely like to hear your opinion on one main point discussed in the podcast. Do you think it's good practice for states to use state funds to pay YouTube videographers to promote public land turkey hunting in states with obvious turkey population declines? Do you think this directly correlates to an increase in hunting pressure on public lands, thus playing a role in the reduced hunter opportunity with an increase in restrictions such as reduced bag limits and season lengths? Not the sole reason, but a role?

Not the sole reason, but a role? I know this question isn't for me but I'm going to throw out my input. Shane stated in an earlier post he was offered money by the dept of tourism for a state which he declined. After listening to the podcast it is clear and I think falsely so that the hosts think wildlife management is responsible for trying to promote hunting in their states. Dept's of tourism are most likely the culprit. Do you really think the gal in the tourism dept checked with the wildlife division before she cut a check to a promote tourism in her state through turkey hunting or if she even cares about the results to said wildlife for that matter. Her goal was to increase tourism. It's her job and she was very successful in the case of Tenn. That comes back to the point of Turkey's belonging to all residents of Tenn not just the hunters. Food for thought
