Turkey Irony

(1/2) > >>

PAHunter:
I went on my first official hunt with a selfbow.  In morning I heard gobbler and hens but only ended up with 7 cows staring at me from 10 feet away and refusing to leave.  Why is there not a cow season!  That was followed by a new spot and being suprised at the sound of a gobbler taking off 20 feet to my left, ya a big one.  So I was pretty beat up after my first day of primitive turkey hunting.  I went to the 3d range to practice and after my first shot a hen flew up from about 10 feet away and perched in a tree almost directly above me.  Though it slightly added insult to injury I had to laugh as the hen sat and watched me shoot, content she had nothing to worry about.  ;)  I'll be back at it on Wednesday!  God I love and hate this stuff.   :P  :laugh:

 Strange things are the norm with turkey hunting. Just keep at it and enjoy the Ride!

Adam:
Turkeys are good at doing things like that.  One of life's great mysteries to me is why I see dozens of deer at 20 yards while turkey hunting and turkeys while I'm deer hunting, but I rarely see the animal I'm after that day.

Just remember when you step into the turkey woods you are not in the middle of the Bermuda Onion!  ...or something like that!
