Helpful Quotes Used While Hunting

Spring Creek Calls

Had lots of time  (8.5 hours) to think about my hunt on the way home from my Minnesota hunt. Started thinking about the things that run thru my head while trying to be disciplined while set up and calling, especially late in the season when the gobbling is at a minimum. I have 2 quotes from 2 gentlemen that I respect that I use when things start to drag a bit and my attention starts to wander, my gun on my lap and my phone in my hands.

#1. Russell Davis from an early  Primos cassette. "If you don't have your gun up to your shoulder when he walks out you have doubled or tripled the odds against you."

#2. Lonnie Sneed Sr., written on his call. "Hunt like you mean it."

Hopefully you have one that I can add to the list, please share.

The best hunters are not those with a natural aptitude for hunting, but those who have had to struggle long and hard to learn every trick of the trade.

Probably the BEST saying that I put A LOT of STOCK in is from Jason Cruise,

"Work the Bird, Don't let the Bird Work You!"

Most of us want that Bird to Gobble all the way to the end of the gun barrel.  When we over call, they will hang up and want the Hen to come to Him.  Get him coming and Shut up!

My biggest mentor always says the gobbler you kill is the one that wanted to die that day. I just think about this whenever the gobbler wins the game. Just go find another
