Some yahoo has to brag about hearing x amount of gobblers in such and such spot and the next thing you know the area is flooded. I just don't understand this need for attention that supposedly grown men absolutely have to have these days. I mean, I play the charismatic, look at me type on OG. But in real life and in my turkey hunting, I preference to lay low. Yeah, it just floors me how someone will ask a question on FB as to where to go hunting here in my state and someone will just tell them exactly where to go. Of course, sometimes it is to throw somebody off track, but often enough, someone is giving out genuine information. When I see those guys doing that, I just say to myself..."You obviously haven't been turkey hunting long enough to know better...".

Quote from: mountainhunter1 on Today at 09:50:46 AMI totally get what you guys are saying, and I am not sure I am even able to post spots on some social media site. Pretty challenged technologically. I have to usually get help to even post pictures on this site. BUT - I still try to have a little empathy (as I know you all do as well) when in the woods. It goes against every ounce of my flesh and my gun even threatens to shoot me when I do it, but sometimes you just have to help a green horn out. Two years ago - had a bird just totally ready to play on opening day - got to the woods way early and a young fellow who had never killed a turkey showed up as well at that same gate. I was talking to him and realized that he was fixing to walk off the other side down into a black hole of a never ending briar patch to hunt that morning - and I just could not let him do that. I said, "Hey dude, come with me today." He gladly accepted and even though in my flesh I knew that my hunting was over for the day, we had a great time on the mtn that day. Turns out, the young man (a true gentleman I might add) had just gotten out of the Navy after serving for I think either 7 or 9 years, and was just trying to integrate back into civilian life and had never killed a turkey before. Long story short, we had the Turkey within 15 yards of him later that day, but he did not feel comfortable with the shot presented. But I was glad I tried to help him even though I knew he had my spot pegged and would come back and come back he did. Fast forward to last spring - he texts me at 3:00 am wanting to know if I was coming. LOL - Anyway, I did a repeat of opening day from the year before with him on the same mtn and again had a bird at 20 yards and he has yet to pull the trigger. It's ok, I tagged out on an even better bird the next week in that Public block on Wednesday. A small part of me hope he crashes my opening day once more this season.
