RE: Diluting accomplishments: Archery Turkeys
I don't wanna talk about it.
Now go sit in your blind and eat your vienna sausages.

Speaking of diluting accomplishments: Chew on this -
We'd all probably frown on a guy who killed a turkey inside a fence. Not so fast!Really, a turkey can easily fly over the fence. So it's free to come and go at its leisure. So the "fence" is a non-factor. Right?
But, we don't frown on "blind hunting" which strips the bird of his two main defenses. Why is that?
So what's worse? Killing a tom in a "high fence" enclosure OR killing one from a ground blind.
Smell what's cookin'?
For the record, the King doesn't expect this opinion to be popular, b/c blind hunting has become widely accepted in the hunting world. Just calling a spade a spade, that's all. Or at least addressing an issue that hasn't really been addressed by the popular media. Obviously, Cabela's sells a lot of blinds, and magazines peddle a lot of ad space to blind manufacturers - so the smart dollar says that most magazines or tv shows wouldn't touch this with a ten-foot-pole.
