I’m out now , windy, haven’t seen or heard a thing in days
it’s gonna be tough from here till season ends I think
I had a long beard on my cam a few days ago , all alone
not sure if I should hang it up until fall
the weeks before and first week of season I was getting lots of pics of big long beards and hens on my cameras .
They were coming out of the woods to a field area I kept mowed .
i set up my ground blind and had one big Tom come close .. I haven’t seen a turkey on any of my cameras since ??
would it still be worth putting out my hen decoy on this mower of and calling ?
Seems like cables breaking is what I hear more of .
Im 65 so I don’t take chances .. I’m attached to a lifeline as soon as my feet leave the ground , then I have another wide strap around the tree above my head that I hook into as soon as I’m seated .
I pull my gun / bow up once I’m seated ..
I feel pretty secure
Man I think a ladder stand is much safer than a climber ,
I have multiple straps on my ladders and I’m attached to a safety line before my feet leave the ground
I posted this on turkey hunting page too but thought maybe others could help too
number 1 and 2 are with a turkey choke , the un numbered one is with full
all 3 are 3” mag 20 gage .
Remington Nitro Turkey and Kent Turkey load
So here’s with a turkey choke
number 1 is Kent 3” 20 gage
number 2 is Remington nitro turkey
And the pic above is with full choke Kents
which would be best
Ok so I set a target up at 27 yards
the number 4 s 2-3/4 only had like 2 pellets in the head
The number 5s 3” mag pic below
Should I try a turkey choke or ?
thx
So I’m seeing lots of birds on my trail cam
I want to use my 20ga 1187 3” mag with 28” bird barrel
I have a full choke tube , do I need a turkey choke ?
I have 2-3/4 “ 4 Shot Remingtons or Kent 3” number 4 and 5 shot Turkey , assume the Kent’s would be best ?
Should I camo wrap my gun or doesn’t it really matter ?
Thanks for the help
This pic is from the other day
It’s heavy like 60 pounds
its a balance beam scale but what’s it used for ?
Only markings are “ Vulcan” in the hooks and “406” on the brass graduated pc
Hummm I see people on here all the time saying “ tag soup again “ and saying they never saw a deer all season..
So “ filling tags “ for some is a tough problem
