How many birds

This is just my 3rd year of hunting them and I haven't had a "seasoned vet" to go with and show me the ropes. I'm pretty much still in the trial and error phase.......please tell me it gets easier.... :D

It actually doesn't get easier you just get better, took me 5 or 6 years to kill my first one, I was 18. From then on I just got to be a better hunter. I would like to go and show what I know but its hard for me go a 3 hours away.
 
Been huntin 2 full seasons on my own after a few hunts 3 yrs ago with a buddy showin me the ropes,that got my fire burnin! Killed one on my 3rd hunt with him, and have taken my limit the past 2 seasons on my on, as well as callin in a couple of birds for friends!
 
No exact #s on longbeards, but definatly over 20 longbeards and a couple jakes.
Pretty good numbers when i think about it. I think this will be my 8th season and I pretty much taught myself everything about turkey and deer hunting.
 
THis isnt an exact number and remember I have been hunting for many, many years. I would say anywhere from 160 to 200 longbeards. Also I hunt 4 to 5 states a spring and usually limit out in everyone. I have never killed a jake before, but I did shoot at one and missed. :D
 
Somewhere around 200. I hunt as many as 6 states a year sometimes, that goes a LONG way toward raising your kill numbers! :)
 
Probably around 75, but quit counting years ago. I have more fun calling them into gun range and passing them up to hunt again nowadays... Guess I've had well over 500-600 I've called to easy killing distance.

I'll usually kill one a year now, just to keep my streak going- at least one turkey every year in TN since 1992
 
Don't believe in keepin count, but I'll tell you this, I've been whooped by more than I've killed, and I've killed a bunch.
