Turkey #2 4-29-09 VIDEO
This video pretty much says it all. Great hunt today, wish I wasn’t by myself this morning as this could’ve been great footage with someone working the zoom a bit. Persistance pays every time. Haven’t been talking much at all down here but each morning is a new day.
Stick with it!
Below are some links to some very interesting turkey hunting articles. So far the season has been a tough one for most hunters here in Missouri. I’m one of the lucky ones this year and took part in my dad harvesting a bird and I was able bag one this last Saturday. Those have really been […]

I only wished it was Monday!! It was a great morning to be out! I got lucky and ended standing within 70yrds of this bird waiting for something to Gobble. I hooted and couldn’t believe one was so close! A good lesson from this morning was this. Many times we’ll put a gobbler to roost […]
Handguns
I have a ruger lcp .380 and a Taurus Millenium Pro in 9mm. So far both have performed flawlessly and are well suited for their purpose of concealed carry. The ruger lcp is so easy to conceal it’s ridiculous – great for summertime! The Taurus is also very concealable and for the money spent (approx […]

Some are in groups as well, but don’t be discouraged if you go scout your place a just see a few birds here and there. They can be fairly unpredictable right now which means […]
