I like it all, but I'm there to kill a gobbler, and thats my favorite part of it.  But thats not saying I still didn't enjoy myself if I come home empty handed.
If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

Watching the dawn slowly creep through the woods followed shortly by that first gobble makes me grin from ear to ear every single time.

Just being out there. Everyday is a different hunt. No telling what will happen...

I voted for all, but I really enjoy the calling part. That gives the greatest satisfaction to me. Hearing the gobble is about as God like as you can get. There's not a guy out there that doesn't like to kill a gobbler. I love to call them, but shooting them is right up there with anything I've ever done..Mike
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?
If attacked by a mob of clowns, go for the juggler.

I enjoy the calling the most.  To me, nothing is more thrilling than starting the calling and then the birds coming in like you see on those Turkey hunting shows......

CASH

A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

Gobble!

I like it all, but it's the rush when he is working in until it is time to shoot that gets me.  The pressure of making it all happen just right is the best.  Breathing after its all over is good too.

None of it dumb sport!  :TooFunny: :TooFunny: :TooFunny:


Every bit of it and more!! Can't wait for spring and fall hunting!

I voted all but I also like to smoke the turkey if I get lucky and it is one of the few things I have hunted that my wife will eat.

You left out the best part of the hunt.....Eating them!

Having a gobbler answer my calling is the biggest rush to me.

Love to hear them gobble, But nothing like calling them in and closing the deal.What a rush!!!!

I like the fact that you have to work your butt off to be successful. At least that is true in these hard scrabble Appalachian Mountains where I hunt. It's not like the Midwestern states where you set up on the edge of a field in a blind and choose which gobbler you want to shoot.
Spring gobbler hunting is real hunting. It's not like rifle deer hunting where somebody runs one by you and you take a crack.
I love the effort and when that effort is rewarded it is an accomplishment of the highest order.
