Default RE: How bad do you "need" to kill a turkey?

I still like hunting with a shotgun and it does require less movement. Many places I hunt I tend to do a lot of running and gunning. I just dont see it being practical to move a ground blind every time I have to move. I do get more out of just being there than having to kill a bird. Last year was fantastic for me, I called in a bunch of long beards even though the only bird I put down was a jake on opening morning. Also, I know that I shouldn't think this way, but in CT it costs me $100 for an archery license that comes with deer tags. It will cost me a bunch more for the turkey tags. I have a pretty good idea that I will be able to hunt deer in CT in the fall, but if for some reason the land I hunt deer is unavailable to me in the fall, the cost of the archery permit is a little excessive for the opportunity to maybe take a bird...
