Would you shoot if you didn't call him in?

Yes, there's more to turkey hunting than just calling

   I often have heard cant kill them sitting on the couch . That one I believe . but cant kill them if you don't call them , cant buy that one . To many scenarios to hunt by one method. Learned woodman ship before learned to call , more proud of that . Sorry but no stalking is a head scratcher , does that mean you cant close , maybe purr and close . I love to hunt , not be chained down , and I am not about the  kill , just about what I have learned in what is starting to be a long life.

Yes, I would shoot. I guess I'm a total reject because I shot one once that my buddy called in.
Another morning; I slipped in really early because I had heard one fly up the evening before. When he gobbled on the roost; I near abouts had a stroke because he was so close. I was scared to even try to call..he was THAT close. When he pitched down; he was about 20 steps away and the rest is history.

 It's your tag, burn it how you wish. Don't ask for validation, if it's legal, if it is within your moral compass, your principals, don't worry about others opinions.

We all know what opinions smell like.

No! And not for some righteous, elitist reason. I had one within shooting range last year that came in silent, surprising the crap out of me. He slipped right in all silent like, heck, most of the gobblers here have learned sign language and are hard to find... but I just didn't feel it. I don't think it was moral high ground or any of that junk, it just didn't get my nerves going like working one in. So... maybe I'm just a broken turkey hunter... who knows.

As long as someone is following the laws of their state they can shoot turkeys however they want and I don't see why anyone else should or would care. In my opinion it's hunting and the purpose is to harvest the game while some methods are certainly more rewarding than others, again in my opinion. I think if you get the opportunity to kill a turkey, duck, deer or any other animal in ethical range while walking through the woods or sitting still you have demonstrated woodman skills. Every animal I have ever hunted is pretty dang good at avoiding humans and being killed, after all 365 days a year that is their main job.
