I've been a deer and duck hunter for most of my life. I love them both with a passion. I really started turkey hunting seriously only five years ago. Now I am totally hooked. I wished I would have started years earlier. I have always had turkeys on my land but just wasn't that interested in hunting them. Five years ago I killed a 20 pounder on my property and now I have a passion not only for deer and duck hunting, but also turkey hunting. It's one of the greatest times of the year. Everything is springing back to life. Hearing that gobble at first light is one of the sweetest sounds you will ever hear. I may be considered a beginner in turkey hunting but I am far from a novice. I have killed many in that short time but I still continue to learn things every season. Hopefully I'll be hunting turkeys for many years to come.
