Nothing more aggravating then...

My favorite was Sunday when some yahoo pulled in on the county road down the mountain did the above, birds gobbled everywhere, yet he left. I ran into the same idiot later, and asked him how his morning was and he said he never heard a bird, lol.

"Guess when you are winded from cranking on that owl hooter it makes it hard to hear" was my comment to him which left him dumbfounded and speechless.

Conversation with some of these clowns can be quite comical!

But many of them really don't hear any turkeys gobble because the things they're doing prevent a lot of gobbling. With Spring running late this year, the woods remain incredibly "open", and many owl-hooting hikers and ATV addicts are simply being seen (and heard) before the hoot.

They were seen and "Heard Before the Hoot"
---- As Seen on TV!

And I swear, I've heard "hunters" over a half-mile away chamber a shell on a quiet morning, as though they were trying to scare away a home invader with their pump actions, and as though turkeys could only hear their owl hooters and nothing else!

These threads are good for more than venting. Hopefully people read these and learn something from it. If I hunt somewhere and there are other vehicles hunting the same area. My first thoughts are 1. Stay away from the people already there. 2. Not act like a knucklehead and ruin it for everybody. Should be common sense, but you know.
