I have seen it happen to guys in videos before. I am one of those guys that double and triple checks every thing before I leave to go hunting while I' m on my way to go hunting and while I am hunting. I really dont think that I could do that. They say you learn from your mistakes.[&o]

I seen that on one of them vidios! He calls the bird in, CLICK. If you turn your volume up loud enough you can hear him say " F**K!" He calls the bird back in and gets him.
LOL:D

WHEN I READ YOUR POST I STARTED LAUGHING AND IT PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE!!!

I TOO HAVE HEARD THE OLE CLICK, PUTT, AND RUN. TWO YEARS AGO, AND THE SHELLS WERE SITTING NICLEY IN MY BACK POCKET!!!!

WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT NOW, IT MAKES ME LAUGH, ALTHOUGH AT THE TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS RATTLING OFF SOME CHOICE WORDS.

GOOD LUCK THE REST OF THE SEASON!!!

I have done the same thing. Don' t feel too bad.

RE: And the winner of the 2003 turkey brain award is......
 

Ben, I' m not sure I would have admitted that! ;) Good thing is that you can laugh about it. Get back out there and keep after ' em! :D

RE: And the winner of the 2003 turkey brain award is......
 

It sure is funny when you think about it.:D Ben, I admire you for admitting the blunder. Now go get that bird (with shells in your gun of course) and post a pic for us.

Sorry to hear that ben, I can surely feel for you. I load my gun as soon as I am far enough away from the road/truck, just so that situation doesn' t happen to me. A few years back a buddy of mine got so dang nervous when this huge gobbler was comming right in to him that he shot when the bird was well over 50 yards away, and his jaw dropped as he watched that great gobbler take flight to parts unknown!!!! Yep, the school of hard nocks will grind into us what not to do!!

OUCH!!!! Whatever doesn' t kill you only makes you strong!! Next time you' ll nail ' em!!!

Ohhhhhh, you didn' t REALLY want to shoot anyway, did ya? LOL.:D

Last time I worked a 25#+ bird, he got spooked by mushroom hunters. I feel for ya, buddy. :)
