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 Something To Ponder

As Turkey season approches, and we get in the woods.
There is something we don't want to step, or sit on.
It could turn a good day into a really bad day.

Can you see what it is?

I'm non reactive to poison ivy so not really that big a deal to me. The only thing I worry about is bringing it home to my family.

I used to get it, but for the past 14 years or so, I've been able to rip it out when I see it and haven't reacted to it.
