Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default And the winner of the 2003 turkey brain award is......

BENHUNTIN!
I had a 25lb plus bird with at least a 10 inch beard within 25 yards of me this morning. It took me nearly 2 hours to work him in. I even had to crawl 100 yards
on my hands and knees to close the gap before he moved in. As he craned his neck to give one last look, I took carefull aim and................ CLICK. PUMP, CLICK,PUMP CLICK?????????? [] I forgot to load my gun.[&:]
I wanna crawl under a stump.[:' (]

Don' t feel bad!

I actually saw it happen to an H.S. Strut pro staff on one of their hunting videos.

Now that' s embarrassing!

I feel your pain. If I had a nickel for every dumb thing I have done in the field my fortune may rival Donald Trump' s.

Look on the bright side, you were following all the safety rules in treating your gun as if it were loaded!!
