A Story and A Snake

ur sick! Truly!

And as for him being five feet in front of me....well I can't help it that I was watching that other pretty boy wandering around in the sun, showing off his pretty colors (you know how us girls like sparkly shiny things), struttin his stuff and showing me what a gorgeous bird he is.

At the same time I was mentally willing him to come my way...and since I don't have it down to the art form that you seem to, I had to really concentrate, so naturally I wouldn't see a bird that was five YARDS from me off to my right until he made quite a ruckus to get my attention. Personally, I think he was just vain and couldn't stand that my decoy might've been purtier than he was. Isn't vanity one of the deadly sins in the Christian religion? I haven't discussed that with the Turkey Gods....

and you have tried to convince the viewers you don't have a way with words..............shame on you!

You don't Mentally will a struttin pretty boy, FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, you use the siren song as was mentioned earlier. With practice honey you will be aware of all incoming bogeys at once. Nice to see that turkeys have to make a ruckus to get your attention/wake you up too. Sparkly shiny things? You mean like fishing lures, the suns reflection off a scope, the key to a brand new airboat, a banded bird? Those kind of shiny things?
When you talk to the Turkey Gods tell them I said hello. Me sick? Hmmmmm.....yes, I am okay with that. LUMESTOR
 
Dani,

Congratulations! Thanks for the pics too, they bring back some good memories. I did my first turkey hunting in N. Florida just south of Gainesville. It seemed every morning I'd get a bird working there was an old guy that would set up 50 yards behind me. He must have been trying to get his moneys worth out of that call. Once the bird would gobble that guy would call and call and call. The bird would shut up and I'd head back to my truck. As I passed the old guy he would make a comment about the bird being call shy. I wonder how that happened???

Turkey capes are easy. Hang them by their feet and when looking at their back you will see two subtle lines on either side of their neck, just cut along them as you are skinning. The feathers cover up the edges so you don't have to a perfect job cutting along the lines.

I never did get a gobbler down there. And, I'm still waiting to get my first public land gobbler. Private land is so much easier!! I haven't bought a tag in 10 years either.

Tom
 
and what other sorts of shiny things are there?????

the siren song is merely a more refined way of mentally willing a struttin' pretty boy to come or go where you want him. So like i said earlier...I don't yet have that down to the art form that you seem to...
