If you need meat go buy a butterball, it will be a lot cheaper. Other than a kids first turkey, you'll get runoff most places for good if you shoot a jake

i have no issue with anyone shooting a jake or a spike. it’s a legal animal/kill and if harvested for the right reason then carry on and so be it

Agreed.

I worry less about the folks who shoot a Jake than I do about the folks who want to kill every longbeard on each property they hunt.

I don't shoot Jake's, if you hunt the same property next year you'll have some good two year olds

the jake is the key to a turkey population. if u got jakes u can kill every longbeard u got and have turkey. if all u shoot is longbeards u cant kill em out. no jakes for anyone that hunts with me i dont care if they have never killed a turkey before.

Never asked so fine by me…lol

Only time I’d ever allow it if I was hunting with someone is a kids first bird…not some grown adults first though

I was just messing around.

But, I dont really care if people shoot jakes. Heck, I may get meat poor and need to shoot one. I have avoided shooting hens with my bow in the fall, but if they keep heading off my birds I may add them to the list too.

Shoot what you want as long as its legal. Just don't think you are going to enter it in the turkey contest and not get ragged on.

Who really turkey hunts for the meat??? Don’t get me wrong I like fried turkey, but it ain’t going very far.

Until you have a few consecutive years of bad hatches.

Funny coming from the guy who was all in for shooting every deer he could in the cdw zone.
