whats so great about turkey hunting

[zrexpilot]

Around here in Texas they are like chickens, and why do you yanks use shotguns ? No sport in that, we head shoot'em with small calibers or bows.

Well when I got home yesterday morning my mom was already out and just up the road about 400 yards or so. she told me she was working a bird with 3 hens and had to go. So I wait out side and listen for the shot and within 5 minutes after the phone call BOOM!!! one minute after that I get a phone call, and she blasted the bird she was pusuing. She had to call loud because of the wind and she said that this bird was mounting another hen when she called really loud and he goobled while doing the deed, then took off running right for my Mother, he was gobbling the whole way and she shot him on a dead run right sreight at her 12 yards. 10 1/2 inch beard, 23 1/2 pounds, 15/16 inch spurs.

Now why would you want to go and do a thing like that?? A round here we throw steak knives at them.

Because we HUNT them, not just shoot them. Apparently you dont understand what thats all about.

Yanks aint the only ones who use shotguns, in GA ist is illegal to use a rifle. I also assume that you are very uneducated when it come to turkey hunting. What does it mean "they are like chickens" does texas have ferrel chickens all over.

Maybe you should try to hunt a WILD TURKEY, instead of going to uncle Billy's chicken farm..... Stupid thread.

Our birds are like Navy Seals that have been trained by great Ninja warriors. No chicken like tendencies at all around these parts.
