RDNKHNTR77 Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 People usually do that because turkeys tend to flop around a lot after being shot and this prevents them from doing it so much. Also, you do not want to try and grab the feet right away because those spurs could get ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Re: this might be a stupid question Just helps to get them to expire quicker so they'll quit flopping but be careful when you do it. A friend of mine was spurred through his rubber boots before. I wear snake boots so there isn't much chance of that happening to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gobblergetter15 Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Re: this might be a stupid question Yep, one of my hunting mentors has several scars from being spurred by turkeys. The steppin on the head is just to help it to stop flopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
