Default RE: rain and maybe stormy weather

I actually killed a turkey a few years back in a tornado. The gobbler had been strutting in a field on a rainy morning. The weather got worse, but he was just out of shotgun range with a bunch of hens, and I couldn't make myself leave him. Finally it started hailing, and this drove the turkeys from the field, right into my lap. I didn't call him up. I figure God was determined to help me with this old bird, and that's what he did. Later, I found out that a tornado had passed through, only a mile or so away.

I gotten on alot of turkeys during thunderstorms. I can't recommend hunting in the lightning, but they'll gobble their heads off at the thunder.
