Well, I got all my gear maintenance done, put away and I am ready for next year. Making some calls to feed my habit. Shoulder surgery is looming but at my age and mileage it's to be expected. All I need now is a dam Time machine. Good luck to all you" Turkey Junkies " out there. Do what you have to to get through it. God Bless, Al Baker  :turkey2:

Mileage is good, as long as we take care of ourselves. God bless, like you I am ready for Spring 2021. See you in the woods...

I agree as we get older we just get better and wiser .. it's time now to buy more turkey calls , turkey hunter can never have enough calls .. LOL... :TooFunny:

I think the number of calls one buys is inversely proportional to the number of days spent turkey hunting? I hadn't bought much of anything for years. Mind you, I have some nice calls,Spring 2020 rolls around with fewer days traveling to turkey hunt and I have been buying calls and lusting for more. I also bought another .410 and have enough TSS to never be able to shoot even if I'm doing cartwheels at 100 and hunting all over creation. What were once vices are now habits!!

Just change the oil and keep the tires rotated and you will be good.  ;D

Amen to all. Let's keep buying calls, guns, and gear. Oh yes, let's get those thunder chickens..... :turkey2:

Reminds me that i need a new call myself. Cracked the slate somehow in my old standby. Maybe want to try a copper pot this time around.Hope your shoulder surgery goes well Zelmo, and that you have a quick recovery!

Re: 2021 my hope is that the Covid hunters are out of the woods.

Been a rough past 2 years for me! Can't wait for 2021! Buying calls and piddling with my gun to pass the time

 Went thru the vest last week, checking for broke items, as most of my calls are old, like me. Just turned 84; all my turkey hunting buddies are gone now. So, I cleaned-up the box-calls and a couple of scratchers and two ol ' real slate calls, plannin' to make it another year in 2021

Best of luck for the rest of this bunch for the rest of the year.

Tom007

Amen my brother. God bless, 84. Hope I get there. Keep on huntin'

I think about the previous season maybe everyday and reflect on it and think about how to hit next season. Just bought a new call today actually.
