Gobbler Nation

It tastes much,much,MUCH better than eating Crow!! In all seriousness sounds like an awesome tradition that you have with your mom, congrats on your fine season and I hope this tradition lives on forever. My wife and in-laws(outlaws!) were non wild game eaters, not by choice, none of them were hunte...

If you get in touch with them, tell them to send you 2 of them, I "Know a guy" that lost his cover after only the 3rd hunt this spring!!

Looks like a great time! Were yall hunting all public land? Congrats FC on the bird!

I believe it. I had something similar happen a few years back, had 2 fool-gobbling jakes come in and they went to fighting each other. They were less than 10 yards from us, and while they were beak locked I stood up and walked right up beside them within inches of them and it didn't bother them 1 bi...

Atta-Boy Adam!! Fun times ahead for you my friend, and if he's anything like his daddy is then the turkeys in Eastern Tennessee are in deep trouble! Awesome picture, and bird, and Great Job, Bud

Yeah I got bit by a Coral Snake in Yosemite National Park

I made a mistake, it was #6 hevi-shot instead of #4. I don't have any left or the old box but I looked them up and saw them in 6's and I remembered then that it was 6's instead of 4's. And Doc made a good point about the yardage. Start at 20 and move in 5 yard increments. I had not read his post unt...

I have. Hevi-13 classic doubles I believe is what it was. I bought a couple of boxes but only kept 1, gave 2 to a buddy, in Ohio. The particular load was 11/16 oz of #4 hevi-shot, and I believe that calculated out to about 96 pellets. I know of 4 birds that were killed from the box of 10 that I ende...

I'm not a real big fan of the new bottomland. At 1st glance it does look like the original but usually from a distance. Both will do the job, however I'm more partial to the original bottomland.

Yeah, they work good on measuring the 10" & 20" circles on those paper turkeys as well.

Dang! I had planned on rearranging my sock drawer, doing my taxes, again, and leading an expedition to the Yukon in search of Bigfoot Poop, this is going to be a tough decision

It's a song from the 80's.

My question is what business is it of anybody's how you obtained the Winchester, Mossberg, Benelli or any other gun? Or what gun you use. Exactly! And I'll add my .02 in this thread, Although I have never been smart enough to shoot a mossy with a scope, I've shot one plenty enough without it, and s...

About 5 gallons worth?!

I bought me two of those chokes. I'm impressed. I saw it on YouTube so it has to be true. Since you bought 2, does that mean a 55 gallon drum full of Spurs?! I'm gonna have to break down and get me 1 or 2 as well. What's not to like about them? Mix in some TSS and I can leave my calls at home, hell...

Man that's awesome! Y'all both killed nice bucks! And that's the biggest 5pt ive ever seen, I love old screwed up horns like that! Congrats to you both!

Let's hope whatever ailment Urban is about to fake, that he did some research this time so he can actually mimic those symptoms!! The hilarious part is that OSU was a 14.5 favorite! Man I'd hate to be the capper who came up with that line, I guarantee he got run out of Vegas yesterday!! Sparty lost ...

I got pics from a friend that lives in the low country this afternoon, and it was bad! He sent a pic of a bridge on I-26, and the water was dang near to the road! he also sent some yesterday vs today pics, and there's several houses yesterday that the water was barely touching and today all you coul...

What if I said while I was out there in Yosemite I had a black tailed buck walk out of the woods and come eat popcorn out of my hand, would you believe me then? If I said it was a king snake then yall would tell me it was a coral snake. This isn't the 1st time I've had someone doubt me and it won't ...

This is the closest thing to a coral snake in Yosemite.

Looks like the one I saw was a long way from home then!

I've only seen 1 coral snake in my life, and it was in California. Back in 98 after I graduated High School, I took a trip to Yosemite National Park, and while hiking one day I ran across a rattle snake that was huge, well over 6ft long. I dang near stepped on him before I saw him, never expected to...

Good Luck!! Do you guide in Kansas?

No need to realign the SEC west!! We like having all out teams ranked, sure the rankings will shuffle from week to week due to us playing each other but that's how we like it! That way you're playing good teams week in and week out. Let me steal a quote from the Nature Boy" TO BE THE MAN, YOU G...

Great read buddy, I felt as if I were there with you! I love old stories and pics like this. Every year right before bow season there'll be new bows that shoot way faster than last years models, broad heads that cut bigger holes and leave bigger blood trails, arrows that are stronger yet light enoug...

I have a yeti koozie(actually got it for my wife) and their tumblr, they both work really good. From what I understand yeti had a temp patent on their coolers, and since they had no competition they could set their own prices. It recently expired therefore opening the door to several competitors. I ...
