RE: How obsessed are you?
Those of us that are obsessed can read all the post in this thread and smile with understanding, even if I have not done all the things mentioned I can say me too, I dont blame you, and we are all crazy. Would not want any other way.

RE: How obsessed are you?
Uhh..yeah, that kinda describes me in many ways... I decided to stop watching turkey videos until after I get back from my scouting trip this weekend. Don't want to jinx it...
Oh the fever...the fever... |

RE: How obsessed are you?
My additions and vices to not necessarily reflect themselves in my personal life. My cell phonefeatures a ring tone that I can hear (which is important to a deaf duck hunter).
I do stir and eat my food in a 1-3-2 pattern though. ;) |
RE: How obsessed are you?
Don't worry SwampCollie, I have tinnitus in both earsfrom manyyears of duck hunting, but the hen,gobbler, gun blast ring tone can be easily heard. You should at least have a duck ringtone.

RE: How obsessed are you?
Although most people would find this kind of behavior strange, I can definately understand it and I do many of these things as well. I find myself talking about turkey hunting to anybody who will listen whenever I get a chance. Every little while I break out my calls and imagine myself calling to a tom. I get up early in Spring just to have a chance of hearing a tom gobble far away in the distance. I've got a countdown to opening day. Stuff like that gets you excited for the season, which is what hunting is all about.

You should at least have a duck ringtone. I might could hear a high ball if I could record my own contest routine with my BOSS. I'll bet I could hear geese too... they have a fairly sharp note. Now... if I could get a woman to speak in to the microphone and used that as my ringtone, I'd be so hard to get ahold of you'd think I stopped paying my bills. |

RE: How obsessed are you?
ORIGINAL: mohunter82 i've set the blind up in the living room and even got in with my bow just to check window heights again. I set up my dekes in the yard and also leave them set up in my den all around the room. my ringtone is a yelp followed by a gobble and then boom. and the only song my radio plays is "hung up" by rhett akins. my screen saver and backgrundon every computer is a strutting gobbler. I'm typing this with a mouth call in as we speak. i even dream turkeys every night till season is over. I've been hunting for 30 some years and I never dream about hunting... I think about it all day long while my eyes are open... But not while I sleep... |
RE: How obsessed are you?
Sickness, addiction, disease, fever. Whatever you wanna call it. It is what I am and what I live for. early spring mornings. dew on the grass. watching the sun rise. hearing the first gobble. I am and will forver be a Turkey hunter for life.
and yea i'll probably have another turkey dream. i know i'm a freak |
