RE: Team #3's Official Roost
 

Sorry guys, I didn't have any luck during my first turkey hunting season. It wasn't from lack of trying though.

RE: Team #3's Official Roost
 

That's all right REEF don't feel bad I didn't score on my hunt also BUT if had used a shot gun that bird would have been mine.

deeg,

You do realize, of course, that only your best bird counts towards the contest, right?

Great job...although I can't imagine how much money you've spent this turkey season...[8D]...my wife would kill me!

RE: Team #3's Official Roost
 

Strut&Rut I know that the best bird is the only one that counts for the team. Also, I know many great people throughout the country and I really didn't spend that much money this season due to the fact that I'm military. I met most of the people I hunt with during the many years of calling competitvely in turkey calling contest. Every where I hunted this season I really didn't spend that much money. Its a give and take kind of situation. I take many of the same friends to my place in ohio, so it goes back and forth. Next year I'm going out west. Before I die I'm going to kill turkeys in all 49 states. Hope you had a great season. GOD bless!
