Love Turkey Hunting but hate watching turkey hunting?
I think my greatest experience in the field to date, was on a turkey hunt. Everytime a turkey hunt comes on tv, I change the channel, occasionally as season fast approaches I'll try to watch, pick up some tips/ try to listen to some calling, but for the most part, I can't stand to watch it. Anyone else out there have the same feelings? Perhaps with another type of animal/hunt?

I also enjoy watching turkey hunting videos. They are not all real life situations, but they are a hell of a lot closer to real life average joe hunting than the deer hunting videos. They kind of get me pumped for the upcoming turkey season.

I think if your really into turkey hunting... I mean obsessed... You would want to watch, read, do everything that has to do with turkeys... I guess I know what kind of turkey hunter you are

I'm with you Mr. Longbeard. I'll watch any turkey video and read any book or magazine I can get my hands on. I'm sure my wife, the kids, and my co-workers get sick of hearing about turkeys and turkey hunting! I do not enjoy watching a deer hunt at all.
