I heard from a guy who hunted South Florida that some of the YouTube “pros” were allegedly doing this down there on public land to find their birds. I bet the videos never mention it though.

What's the point? I've never been that desperate or wanted to kill one that bad. The fun and challenge of figuring them out is why most people do it

The guys I heard about doing it in FL were on a 60k acre block of public land. Gotta eliminate the unproductive acres to get that footage so they can get those likes and shares.

Here's a debate................why is using a thermal drone to locate game frowned upon but livescope is acceptable for fishing?


...aaand go


There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world:

1. All Politicians Are Liars
2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement
3. Taxation Is Theft

Because I’ve never shot a turkey in the face and threw him back.

It should make it easier to ease in early and shoot them off the limb.

Well, I hate busting roosted turkeys in the dark, trying to just get to where I should be going…..but I’m not quite that desperate.

It's not that easy. Even if I know where they are roosted they are hard to find in the big pines. But I can fly all my fields on 400 acres in 10 mins and spot any birds on the field.
Here's a video from this morning.
