I'm tired of looking at topics about vests, shells, and optics. 
Why would anyone waste a tag on a jake. :whistle:

Re: James
There was a time when I felt the same way. I set up on what sounded like a mature bird one morning. He was gobblin good and getting closer. A jake walks around the corner of the logging road and I'm thinking ol big boy will show up any second. But the jake just walks past me and out of sight and starts gobblin again.
I decided that day that I'm not passing on jakes anymore.

Re: James
I definitely am not gonna say I have never shot a jake !! But these days I prefer to waitin on Mr Tom !! I believe every youngster needs a chance to get a bird !! I am a big fan of Mississippi rules !! Youngsters can shoot em! but adults must shoot a bird with a six inch or longer beard !! Just my opinion

Re: James
That is a neat rule there. I like that rule because I do not shoot jakes but I still think that if a hunter is happy with a jake then shoot the jake.

You need to lighten up, this was clearly meant tongue in cheek, however people like you can't seem to grasp the concept.

I agree that if someone wants to shoot a legal bird by all means shoot it ! I simply don't shoot them and would love to see what our turkey population would do if we stopped shooting the youngsters !!

Re: James
IMO jake killing has its place in time for turkey hunters!! you will eventually develop a mind set not to kill them and burn a precious tag on a SHORT BEARD!! I am at that point in my life

There was no agenda, except having a little fun, and most caught that from the get go.
If you have a problem with someone over an Internet forum than you are truly a sad individual with what must be a depressing life.
Go read the original post, it was a harmless question meant as a joke and thus the reason I didn't even respond until you showed up trying to be mister forum tough guy.
Everyone else seemed to get the point, but I guess there is always the one who seems to fail kindergarten in every group.

Its been 2 years since I have killed a turkey. If a jake is my first opportunity this year he dies. After that its all long beards for the season.
