Rustic-Fisher Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Hit a field this AM for some turkey hunting with a buddy. We're both rookies when it comes to Turkeys but managed to call in a few just outside our shooting distance. 10x smarter then I ever gave them credit for LOL! Anyone else get out?

Old Ironmaker Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) I saw one flying over the tree line today while on the way to Caledonia, I knew they could fly and have seen plenty but this guy was way up there at least 30 feet. Nearly got attacked just this past Tuesday going from the 11th hole to number 12 on the golf course, one would think that after all these years we would remember they are nesting there every year. Man they can be mean. Not knowing anything about hunting Turkey have they had their litter by now? Very cool bird to see in the wild and better on the table. I usually see the weigh station open in May here in Haldimand County, they may be out of season, otherwise I might have laid a 9 iron on her, who am I kidding, that's as close to a birdy I had all year. Hey Irishfeild, what's all that white stuff on your lawn, hasn't anyone told you guys up there it's been spring now for a few weeks? Come on (weather) man..........the jokes over. Snow flurries Saturday and golf Tuesday in short sleeves. Edited April 26, 2013 by Old Ironmaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, Out again today, spooked two out of their roost on my way in, then spooked another heading to a Different location. And if that's not enough I had me walk right in from of my jeep on Hwy 27. Thinking I'll stick with rainbows in the spring LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
