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 The pig who shot ME turkey!

Well, a few weekends ago my dad and me went out turkey hunting. We had three walk up on us and dad reached for his slate, the back turkey saw him move and he says, " shoot Rye, shoot...hurry up and shoot."

All the time I' m looking for heads of the front two turkeys, trying to find one of them to cap when I hear a...BOOM!!!

Dad wastes the back one, and I' m left with jack squat. He kept asking me why I didn' t shoot, and I told him that I didn' t have a shot on any of the front ones. So quite frankly, if dad wouldn' t' ve had a gun in his hand, I would' ve had a turkey.

It was a good bird too...9 1/2 beard, 3/4' s spurs, and 18 pounds.

Fro I feel your pain...If your a card player there is a saying that could apply here. " Never let a trick go by!" I bet your Dad is a great euchre player.

Give him my congratulations and remember what goes around comes around! Your day is coming.
