I love to see feathers fly, I love to spend time with family, I love to be outdoors, but the thing about turkey hunting that draggs me out of bed is hearing em GOBBLE. What say you?
 
I like to watch that sun come up every morning and listen to the gobblers and hens talking to each other getting the morning started. I say a pray of thanks for every morning that I am in the turkey woods.
 
I do love hearing them hammer as you call them in but for me it is the challenge of the hunt. I hunt pulic land only and most of the time it is a challenge to get to the bird first and then the duel with the bird. I can never get enough, regardless of weather, location or other huntiners. I just love it!!!
 
I think the woods at dawn would be a great place to take people and tell them about the Lord. From my perspective, that would be one of the hardest places to deny that there is a God.

AMEN brother!!!
 
The chess match, if it weren't for the strategy sessions in the woods I would quit. Trying to use terrain, foliage, etc etc to get into perfect position is what it is all about for me. Physically pulling the trigger means nothing, and is an unfitting end for a longbeard, but I follow through the same as the rest with the killing.

Also, I spend all winter grouse hunting the same areas I turkey hunt, and love to see the woods go from barebones dead of winter through spring green up.

In the words of Will Primos....."There's just something about it", that gets me out of bed every morning during April and May at insane hours.
 
Just love to hunt and spend time in the outdoors. Doesn't matter if it's rabbit, sq, deer, etc.. or even if it's just hiking through one of the state parks. Just like being outside.
 
I love everything about turkey hunting in April. :grin: I can't decide if April or October is the best month to be in the woods. I have even learned to accept the rain, mosquitoes, chiggers and ticks! :o Daylight gobbles send chills up my spine, but my biggest satisfaction is talking a going-away longbeard into coming to check me out. :cool:

Yea i cant tell anyone why i like it. You just had to be there.
 
Dawn breaking just over the hill side.
Looking in the trees trying to figure out if those are turkeys on a roost or a pile of leaves.
Listening to the owls or the donkeys and cows.
Sitting next to or crawling in cow poop.
Listening to the turkeys while they still on the limb.
The fly down.........then the chase is on.

I just love Turkey Hunting period. I also love sharing my hunts and experience my friends getting a longbeard.

I love turkey hunting.

Oh did i say that already?
