[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5339037, member: 1409"] The below statement was taken from "elsewhere", but it seems fitting to be placed here. [I][B]Many of us don't look down on those who cheapen the experience by using unfair tactics because we feel we are better than them, but rather [U]feel sorry for those who are missing out on the full experience[/U] of what true turkey hunting is.[/B][/I] [B][I] I really do feel sorry for those who measure turkey hunting by number of kills, how fast they limit out, how many FB likes they get, etc... because they are too consumed by the easy kill rather than [U]enjoying interacting with the most valiant animal on the planet[/U]... And this is coming from a guy who used to be all about stacking them cordwood high (limits respected). But that was when the population seemed limitless on my farms. I've since just learned to appreciate the wonder of a roost gobble, a shy hen single clucking to my calls, and especially a worthy adversarial tom whom I convince he just HAS to give me one look because of my calling. I DONT want to kill out/ tag out. Because it means I'm not truly in the game for the rest of the season. And it's a game I just can't put down and walk away from.[/I] [/B] [I][B]- - - - - - - - - - - - - Quote [/B][/I][B]From a Renowned Mississippi Turkey Hunter[/B] [/QUOTE]
