Re: How bad have you got it???

Speaking of poo. Went to sleep thinkin about this post and remember one turkey hunt ya'll might think is extreme. Ya see in my younger days, I not only liked turkey huntin' but I also liked that turkey in the bottle as well. Well, I celebrated the opening weekend with a little turkey in the bottle and the next morn, I surely paid for it. I went thru a roll right quick chasing this roaming tom gobblin as he lead me thru the forest. Hugged many a pine that morning. 'Bout 11:30, the urge hit again and I was down to one puny sheet. Just as I was fixin' to make the best of that sheet, that tom I'd been chasing let out a gobble, close. The heck with it, I just pulled everything up and sat up a few tree's upwind. Well, that tom did what he did best, left. I eased up a loggin' road a good ways for about an hour, getting pretty nasty I might add. I gave up and headed back down the road, got just about where I heard him first and nearly *(&&^ my drawers (agin) when he gobbled not 40 yards away. I quickly sat up, purred on a Lynch Jet Slate, scraped some leaves and here he came. Fine doubled bearded tom fell at 20 yards. I named him "The No Wipe Tom" grin.gif

Needless to say, I went home commando style tongue.gif

Re: How bad have you got it???

The last place I lived was right next to a farm. Every spring, I'd leave my bedroom window open and the gobblers would wake me up. I'd have my Super Crystal on the nightstand and usually they would start in about 5am and I'd exchange calls with them just to hear them gobble. Now, starting about mid April, I go out every weekend and sometimes before work to a wildlife preserve with camo, calls, and camera to turkey hunt without firing a shot. This area is "No hunting" so I'm not infringing on anyone and it is good practice to call them in. The neighbors think I'm nuts getting up at 4:00am to do this but I LOVE IT!!!! It definitely provides my fix until the real hunts start in May. Yahoo!!!
