So its almost turkey time....

Richard wanted to post these, but couldn't figure it out. So here's some turkeys!

Yep, those are some nice strutters.

Man, I just hope I get to see some birds this May...

that farm you told me about, if it has cows and trees there are turkeys.

My mother in law's farm?

I've seen birds while deer hunting, so I know they are there. It's 84 acres; about 14 or so acres of woods, butted up to the neighbor's 10 acres or so of woods, surrounded by corn and soybeans.

I just hope I can do enough pathetic calling to get one within eyesight, let alone 20-30 yards! I just want my son to a see bird in the wild.

Here is what the farm looks like... sorta... waiting for GoogleEarth to get better aerials... the red is the farm boundaries, and the blue denotes where the woods are.

I'm a terrible caller and i called one in last year on my own I just shot and missed

Now lets talk about pathetic.

April 15th is the opener here. I have a customer that has about a hundred of the things running wild at his place. He's been trying to get me up there for a while now so I'll be there on the opener and see if I can call one of the darn things in to bow range, otherwise it's going down with the shotgun.

shotguns are unethical ,,wait not here.

I ran my shotgun by the ethics police and it turns out it passed the ethicalness test.


So because I suck I'm gonna try to get a gobbler with the gun first and then try the last one with a bow, and the next three will be with explosives of course.

Yea i take the choke out of mine...................ooooopppppssssss, am i unethical?????

I would have to say yes if you only kill one bird at a time. If you shoot more than one at a time then no.
