I’ve killed WAY more mature bucks than gobblers over the years.

Wow . I just started turkey huntin' serious about 8 years ago , I've averaged about 3 a season. I 've been deer hunting nearly 50 years and I've killed a bunch of full grown uns, but I ain't even close to averaging 3 mature studs a year.

I miss hunting the Fall Season in Clarke County. You can walk right up and knock 'em in the head in the Fall no problem 🤭🤣🤣

I just don’t have places that consistently hold turkeys. I’ve killed 5 in 2012 and 2018. Most years I kill 2-3. I’ve killed 3 bucks nearly every year or at least have the opportunity. I don’t always choose to pull the trigger. Killing mature bucks has never been a problem to me.

The question was which is easier to kill

Everything being equal

Turkeys are easier to kill in so many different ways . I've killed a thumping bump of both

All things equal I guess I’d say turkeys. They just aren’t always available. Used to be many more to play with than there is now. If turkey season was as long as deer season I guess my kill rate would go up. 😂

You can kill 3 gobblers in 1 shot pretty easy. Just having the opportunity is the hard part.

Well , you hunt those ol' easy bucks . laugh. I'll add I will pass "mature" bucks , I don't just shoot one based on his birth certificate. I like age , plus big antlers plus a heavy weight, the total package if you will.

If a spike counts as a buck a jake counts as a gobbler. 3 gobblers no contest and it isn't close. If you had to only hunt deer with shotguns and bows then you could 10x the difficulty.

Me too but if you could use a rifle for turkeys ( an even playing field) which one is exponentially easier. I love turkey hunting but to even compare the difficulty of killing a mature buck against a mature gobbler is nuts. Not even remotely the same level of difficulty.

An easy illustration for me is the fact that I killed more gobblers this season than mature bucks my whole life lol.
