Re: How do you measure your distance? rangefinder for shooting at targets and i'm pretty good up to 30 yds. by eyein' it, i probably wouldnt shoot over 30 yds, but that is just me, i like em close and personal.....last yrs. bird was 31 yds, that was my longest shot ever......

Re: Osceola Turkeys i have always been told there is an imaginary liine that runs through Gainsville, the osecolas are south of it....not saying that Gainsville doesnt have em....whiskeyswamp obviously got 2 there i would say hybrids are what youd see more of....i hunt the orlando area, well just outside of orlando, there aint no arguing that these birds are osceolas....good luck

Re: spring just those 2 hogs.....and alot of squirrels....waiting patiently for turkey season...hopefully it wont be as painful as archery, muzzy and general gun, lol.....

Re: Im So So Happy. yeah you sure did get lucky...she's a keeper......she must love ya somethin' fierce.....

Re: To all the ladies who hunt and fish. well, i thought he was ok, but then he sent me another email.......this is what he wrote: poor taste?!!....not hardly!.. people like you, who must take themselves, and the feminist viewpoint so seriously, are a small, humorless minority. I write to an Ozarks audience of about 400,000 men and women, who have read my columns for twenty years and support it entirely. Sixty percent of the letters from them, some 1000 plus each year, come from women who say they never miss my column and love to read it. read the letters from readers on my website...www.larrydablemont.com I realize there are a few men-haters out there who lead miserable, humorless lives and will find fault with any of us who poke fun at the battle between the sexes. There are not many of you, and most of us do not much care what you think. I am thankful my daughters were born with brains, and common sense.... as well as the ability to laugh. l.d. this guy is an ****, plain and simple......

Re: Great Ways to NOT kill a Gobbler when youre napping/eyes closed and you hear crunch , crunch,crunch from behind you, dont think hee hee hee that's my buddy sneakin' up,trying to scare you because it'll probably be the bird you've been hunting.....(happened to my sister, lol... ) overcalling is a pretty sure way not to getone as well...

Re: Bearded Hens i would ONLY if she had a nice beard anything over 4'',ONLY because she would be a trophy and would be mounted ,, after that , i would let them walk during the spring, but not the fall.....

Re: Importance of Yelping on a Call [ QUOTE ] A Patient hunter can kill alot of birds by scouting and using only clucks and purrs, especially on hard hunted Public Land. [/ QUOTE ] amen to that.......i've taken 4 out of 5 birds this way...the other i had to talk too, it was yelping, but that was what was bringing him in fast, i think it all depends on the bird.....i would definately stick with the clucking and purring on public land...an occassional yelp....

Re: Dog Huntin\' i hunted with dogs for deer one time....it was exciting...it was private land,700 acres.....the dogs chased 2 yearlings around in the brush, i could here the deer moving, got the adrenaline going for sure, but that was followed by disapointment, but i was glad i tried it, i dont think it's something i'd do alot of by anymeans, but i had to try it before i formed an opinion of it....i used to be antidog hunting bigtime ...and i still dont agree with the way some of these dogs are treated, but this year during the 2 week long hog hunts, not one dog was killed or lost that wasnt found, i saw more radio collars and transmitters in the air this year then any other...it was good.....but in the years past, i got soured on this sport real quick....because of the dogs owners, not the dogs...but then i asked my biologist buddy about the muscles being like jelly after a chase because my hogs meat wasnt firm at all, he suggested it may of been from the chase , then he explained what happens to deer when they are chased for any long distance....the muscle turns to jelly, they might live through the chase itself, but then the kidneys give out....it happens alot when they capture deer, they're fine , then dead....it's called capture myopathy.....this would be the reason i wouldnt dog hunt deer again...i wouldnt want that buck of a lifetime run by me just to die weeks later....

Re: Check these pics out! that is just amazing.......thanks for sharing......

Re: Ultimate Deer Hunter Must See!! love them hog pics......that is awesome......i was watching some show the other night on the everglades and the park service, it showed a baby gator and a baby croc laying next to eachother, it was quite the site...Gators are much more handsome than those crocs....ugly lil boogers...i've seen a few gators in the salt waters around here, there's not a deer or pelican safe from them, lol....they're everywhere...i saw a Gator eating a huge hog a few weeks ago, wish i had my camrea, y'alll would of loved it....

Re: bye deer hunting hello turkeys i have one more hog hunt, but turkey scouting has offically begun for me as of last thurs., i got a new shot gun yesterday, just like my old one,but it's a new one, lol.....mossberg500/accuchoke......i ran over my last barrel and had to replace it, it is just a plain barrel, i've harvested critters with it, but i wanted my old barrel again.....wooooohooooo.....bought it from a friend for $100.00.......i'll name it after i shoot my first bird with it :)God willing.....

Re: **Funny thing to know about HENS**** well thank you for straightening that out for me, lmao......

Re: To all the ladies who hunt and fish. it was done in humor.....that is what he said in his email....i was very nice about the whole thing when i wrote him.....i was waiting for the reply from his email before i said what i wanted to say. i told him i would tell y'all that it was a joke that was done in poor taste ...very poor taste.... got to give him credit for trying to get women there, he just doesnt know how.....

Re: To all the ladies who hunt and fish. i am writing this man.......well not a man, not a real one at least, but he's going to get a fricking mouthful, i wish i could go and voice my opinions too, no not opinions, FACTS.........thanks for sticking up for us ladies.....i agree it's be harder for us ladies to get the harvest to the truck, but we do it , just takes a lil longer sometimes .....i actually enjoy the walk out, my sister usually comes to help me and i with her harvests,it's comical... i found this on his site:http://www.larrydablemont.com./index.php?src=pictures Telephone (417)777-5227 now is he a total ****, or just half an ****.........i'm still writing.....

Re: Strutting Hen [ QUOTE ] I'm sure the hen was trying to show her dominance over the others, [/ QUOTE ] that would be my guess, i knew a hen that was always strutting, and as God is my witness, she would come by you strutting then she would purrrrr and then bite the living doggy mess out of you.....i had several bruises on my legs and rearend because of her....she thought she was my boss hen,lol......she's in turkey heaven now(struttin')lol....
