Getting ready was a little depressing.

I was putting on my camo the other day to go deer hunting and saw my shotgun leaned up in the corner. It was a little depressing that I wasn't gonna be grabbing it and heading out to listen for a gobble.

I understand. I have felt the same way every time I climb a tree.

Mine stares at me every time i open the safe like an exgrilfriend in high school who you just dumped for the head cheerleader.

You think they would know you always going to come back when your ready.

My little Yildiz bounces up and down like my squirrel dogs used to do when they thought we were going hunting. She is a bloodthirsty little thing.

My new 28 ga M37 was looking at me with great expectations the other day when I took out the improved cylinder duck choke and put in the full. But she'll have to wait till later to go out in the turkey woods since I didn't get a chance to pattern her with the big shells yet.

So, now I've got to decide whether it'll be the CZ or the Franchi going out with me to listen for turkey noises and try to trick one into thinking I'm good company this Saturday....

I'm just as giddy as if it were opening day in spring!

I think the worst part is sitting in a tree hearing a crow call and the first thing you do is listen for a gobbler to sound off

True, or how about that owl when it let's loose right at daylight.

Mine folded its arms and turned around like a child pouting in a corner when I rearranged my safe for the fall use guns.

Good gosh guys yall have pet name for your turkey gun,s.dont get me wrong I like turkey hunting just as much as the next guy.but those feathery critters done made me angry.they have eat all my seeds ,corn everhthing else I put out for my deer.no kidding I litterly can drive up to any of my 10 greenfeilds,right now there just dust fields. but there's at least 10 turkeys in every feild they will raise there heads and go right back to eating my seed.then come turkey season there like gohst.

Well you can consider me a ghost hunter.
Will be glad to thin a few for you.

I hunt them myself,just a little upset they eat up all my greenfield seed.i live pretty much were I hunt plus oversee another 600 acres here at my house,there,s no-one that hunts them but me and the coyotes.keep me in mind I might need a partner next year on 209 acres of it to help out with lessening it.loaded with turkey,s I'm 8 pt with a 16 mininum spread on deer.no does there are several 130 t0 140 class deer on this proerty.you can kill as many coyotes as you wish.i have been hunting this land all my life I'm 44 years old.back a few years ago it was family only we killed around 15/20 deer ayear,but most were small bucks and does.my brother in law got divorced,my brother had a severe heart attack,and this past year my dad died.so that leaves me only,with my small children which will be with me at all times.the bummer is the landowner died and left the land to a university.they told me pretty much next year I will start having to lease it.if that happens I will b looking for one individual to share the lease with and about the deer and turkey,you.can kill as many turkey as you wish I'm not counting.but the deer I'm very strick on them all bucks have to be 8 points 16 inch spread.only exception if you have a kid they can shoot one doe.pm me and I will text you the quality of bucks I have. Yes I said about 5 years ago we used to shoot anything.but that changed when I was the only one hunting.there are no hunting clubs near by, have very good neighbors all the way around .

I just decided to take the CZ tomorrow. Screwed in the XF and LF chokes. Chalked up my Hustlin Hen, double checked on my mouth calls, put 4 shells in my vest, loaded my gun, boots, vest, et al in the truck, and set my alarm for 3:58 a.m. I filled the truck up with petrol last night. Just got to ready my granola bars and canteen...

I'm giddy...

You can't fit in here without having your guns named. It's unamerican

Not speaking English is also un-American. I can't even read that mess

It ain't close to those helicopter drops Blackhawk used to talk about is it?

No it,s in central alabama,if you think im full of it text me and i will send you somfsome pictures of the deer, i hadnt been keeping any turkdy pictures , but i can start text me at 294 5961

Either this is Blackhawk, or he's had some serious choke trouble in the past. Not sure which one.
Does feel like late spring weather outside. I told 3toe yesterday in a text that I don't hunt in 90 degrees unless I've got a turkey vest and shotgun.

It's rock

Figures. Boy can't get on here and act normal.

Report? I saw 11 longbeards this weekend, 4 in one group and 7 in another.

I couldn't find a bird. They'd been working in there with bulldozers this past week, and must have run then out. But it was a beautiful morning in the fall woods. Very therapeutic.
