Life is way too short to allow azzholes to shoot you down for trying to do the right thing. Unfortunately their is always these people out there (You know who you are) thank you for the time you have put in and the memories we have cashed. I will post my birds on the photo page but nothing else. RIP Turkey Contest.

When do the sign ups start for 2011 turkey contest? Lee,

I would like to partake if I still can. Please let me know. Thanks Lee,

I hunt with Larry and he is the reason that I am part of this forum. What a great guy he is one of the best friends that I have and I have learned a lot about these crazy birds from him. Good luck to everyone. I will be going this Sat & Sun. Lee,

I am looking for a new pack frame and wanted to get some input on what everyone is using. I want one that can be used as a back pack and also used to pack out meat. Thanks for your input. Lee,

Keep up the hard work. Looks like you are getting into the birds. It is hot here to. If you can get in front of those gobblers you may have a chance at ambushing them. That is what I had to do last year in Oregon. I found 4 gobblers in the bottom of a draw and they did not want to play. So I ran up the other side of this ridge and up to the top then went straight down to the same logging road but higher up the Mt. I was able to get in front of them and I was able to seal the deal with the last gobbler in the group he was the biggest. When I shot him, the first bird was only 5 feet from me and the last was 20 yards. It was hot that day and they would hardly gobble. As my hunting buddy Lombard would say "You have to put the ninja sneak on them" and that is just what I was able to do. Have fun out there and shoot them in the face. Go Team Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go Team Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Turkey Snipers on the board!! One Shot One Kill!!!!!!!!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was able to go up North to hunt this last weekend and I shot a respectable bird. I will have the stats on the other check in site. What a great hunt my hunting partner and I were able to talk two long beards into flying a crossed thee Clearwater River and that was the first and last mistake that they made I had never seen birds fly that far they flew about 150 to 175 yards over to use. I will hold off a little longer the next time that I go up North because I could have gotten a better bird but I am used to getting skunked and took the shot. He did not like the decoys that we had out and I was forced to shoot him at 63 yards, dropped him like a sack of potatoes. He started to flop after about five min. We had two birds coming in and thought that we may be able to take the other as well. I hope that everyone else is having as much if not more fun then me. Good Luck to all.

OOO Yessss this year is turning out to be very nice. I just love to hunt in the spring. On those birds that you hear a long way off you may try getting as close to the location as fast as you can in the morning (you may have to jog or walk very fast but close the distance) and sit down and call very soft so the birds can hear you as if you were only 100 yards away. When he hears you he will know that you are there and sooner or later (Usually later) he will come in to your set-up after he is finished servicing his hens. Take a good book and maybe a mini blind so if he comes in quiet he will not see you turning the pages. They call this hunting for a reason. If it was called killing I do not think that it would be as fun. Being in the woods is one of the coolest things that our creator has provided for us to do. My wife tells me that I should go and live in the woods, but I would miss her so I do not. Good luck to all and have fun out there. Lee,

Pics for ljmelea Here are the pictures for ljmele Allow me to be the first to congratulate you on such a fine bird. Lee, (Go Turkey Snipers Go!!!!!)

I was thinking the same thing Lou, Do we still have a team? Iknow that you are starting on the 7th but I have not heard from anyone on this team for weeks. I have PMed every body and the only one I have heard from was huntin4bucks he was not doing so well the last time I talked to him. maybe he will give us an update. I go for my second bird this Sunday and my 3rd in Oregon the last week of the mounth. Have a good one. Lee, Go Team Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
