where I live you can t hunt turkeys in the fall you can hunt them in the spring but not on national sea shore land so you can t hunt them in other words.So what we have is a bunch of turkeys with there beards draging on the ground I am going to get a digital camera so i can put some pics up of them to show you guys.I am not a turkey hunter for this reason but from what I have seen on tv andin magazines these birds are huge it is a shame.
