RE: What did you learn this season?
 

Practice shooting from different positions -right and left handed.

You can STILL get a gobbler even if you aren' t out at the break of day--oversleeping is NOT a disaster!

Expect the UNEXPECTED!

Always hunt hard!


NEVER give up!

RE: What did you learn this season?
 

Relearned that Turkeys are quite unpredictable!

The four gobblers who ran right past me from behind and ignored my decoys taught me more " stuff" doesn' t always help.[:@]

The guy on the neighbors property who shot before shooting hours showed me we still have a way to go on ethics.

The Eastern I killed opening day reaffirmed that gobblers dont always gobble and that in strut they can take 20 minutes to move 10 feet.:D

The Rios I hunted taught me we can make a lot of funny noises when we call because they do too.

Most of all, I was reminded why this is a great sport, why we need to do all we can to expand habitat and bird populations, and why we need to help kids discover the joy of a spring morning in the woods, Lunch after the hunt with morels and friends, and seeing who got the most ticks!

Success is not found in killing a bird, but in the simple pleasure of watching Turkeys being Turkeys. I never grow tired of that.
