Default Non Turkey Hunters...

For those of use who aren't bowhunting turkeys right now, what do you fill our free time with?

I've been getting all of the fishig stuff ready amongst the endless cycle of homework, study sessions, and work. I've also used some of my downtime to do some armchair scouting of a property I should have access to this fall.

Also been following the NHL playoffs - can't forget about a true sport like hockey.

So let's hear it - What else are ya'll doing?

Bowhunting Turkeys....[8D]

But when Im not Im rigging the boat for Bowfishing Season, practicing with the new fly rod, MOWING ALL THE TIME, class, girlfriend, practicing with the bow.

Just found out today that to replace the throttle box on my boat will cost me a whopping $265.[:@]and that is with a middle of nowhere hick mechanic, buthe truly knows his stuff....Just think if I took it toa ripoff marine shop. That thing better accelerate smooth as silk now...lmao. I still need lights for nighttime bowfishing, which will run another couple hundred dollars as well.

We are done with shed hunting for the most part so I just kick back and take it easy when I get a day off. Spring's work on the farm has started so that will take most of my time until June.

Trout fishing, my kids and coaching baseball. I do hope to make it up to Rob/ PaBowyer's house so he can show me the ropes on hunting Turkeys and possibly put me on one with the bow!
