Quote from: Happy on July 04, 2016, 04:52:53 PMMy problem with TSS is the ability to reach "way out there" with certain setups. I have no problem with the .410 -28 gauge crowd making an effective turkey gun. However I have more respect for a guy using a 22 hornet over a guy with 2.5 ounces of #9 TSS in a 12 gauge cause at least he is honest about it. Heck longbeards are capable of reaching out further than I believe is sporting. If we were overrun with turkeys then it wouldn't be a problem. Open regs up and bring it under control. Since that isn't the case then choking down on the success ratio should be in order. That and heftier penalties for poaching. I believe that is a huge issue in my neck of Wv. To many trigger happy idiots who have no willpower shoot many turkeys while squirrels hunting and deer hunting. The older I get the less tolerant I am of such stupidity. If someone can't control their trigger finger then they should stay out of the woods period. Our club has a huge issue with that and it infuriates me.
Quote from: Happy on July 04, 2016, 06:44:55 PMI am a hevi shot guy myself. However I have not pursued making it a long range shotgun. I can kill with certainty at 40 and a little fudge factor for yardage estimation errors. The incidentals are out of season game taken. I have no problem with taking game within season if presented with the opportunity. There are a ton of deer and turkey taken out of season or with rifles during bow season where I hunt. It is childish, ridiculous and inexcusable. I would love to see some serious penalties for that crap.

Quote from: WV Ridge Reaper on July 04, 2016, 08:19:49 PMHave to ask if you shoot Hevi shot why am I such a unethical/bad hunter for using I just like the challenge with tss and tight patterns at 5 yards when I pull a the mohican sneak and peak
