A turkey hunter just can't have enough places to hunt! Real enjoyable to hunt a new place I'm not familiar with, kinda tests our instincts and makes me a better hunter.

Somewhere around 13 or 14 years.
Hunted Al, Tx, Ne, Ks, Fl, and Mo.
I didnt kill my first bird till around 3 years into the game. It was very frustrating for me. Hang in there gomer, patience and persistence will pay off.

I've actually only Turkey hunted 40 years. Killed my first long beard in 1981 in Marengo County and Killed my largest in Page County, Virgina in 2002 (21.75 pounds). Virgina birds are much easier to kill than these crazy South Alabama birds!
Looks like I am the current leader on years hunted. If I live until 3/15, I'll start my 52nd season. I've hunted in 8 States, but killed turkeys in only 6. I tend to keep going back to the same places over and over.

First time out was 1986. Had never seen or heard a wild turkey before that day. We had none when I was growing up.
I've hunted 9 different states. Killed all the grand slam subspecies a few times.

Went on my first hunt with my Dad when I was 12. Killed my first when I was 19. Took a few years off from the woods when my son was born. Called up my first on my own two years ago. I've killed only AL birds so far.

I've hunted for 57 years, starting at age 12. I've killed turkeys in MI, IL and MT. Have yet to kill a gobbler in Bama, but I'm hoping 2016 is the year.
