Turkey Camp....now with IOW(ABO)W'S HUMILIATING COPPER TURKEY CALL

(1/11) > >>

JW_Halverson:
A number of forum members are converging on the Black Hills of South Dakota in order to pit themselves against some of the oldest, wiliest, and most frustrating turkeys on the face of the earth.  We have not had a decent hatch in 4 years and what gobblers we have are mostly a pretty call-shy and well educated bunch of hard cases.  Nonetheless, we shall throw ourselves at them with vim and vigor!  Not with much common sense or goodjudgement, most likely. 

I am starting the post so we will have a place to post pics and tell our individual stories.  Iowabow had a good time last year and we are hoping he goes home with more than just stories.  Soy is struggling to make it in from Minnesota, fighting against an outbreak of bird flu that is bent on wrecking his job and main source of revenue.  Meanwhile, Primitive Tim continues northbound in his Scooby Doo Mystery Machine, utterly UNDAUNTED by the weatherman's threat that we are facing a spring snowstorm and snow that may be measured in FEET!  I wonder if his tie dye will work for or against him as a form of camoflauge. 

I've been working in the kitchen non-stop for several days making meals that we can simply reheat and eat.  We will be dining on venison stew, chili, carnitas and other hearty fare.  I am hoping I can feed them so well that they don't feel the humiliation these crusty old gobblers are gonna be handing out like mini Snickers bars at Halloween.

Keep a weather eye out, turkeys...and you birds, too!
