[QUOTE="Huntaholic, post: 5827363, member: 605"] LOL Joe knows me pretty well! In fact, where he hunts out there and where I hunt are straight across the highway from each other. Ive hunted that area for 18 or 19 years now and prior to the fires in 09 and again in 11, we killed turkeys like we were on a dove hunt. And YES, I call them in, no ambushing. The last good year we had out there, there was 3 of us hunting and we killed 8 in 2 days, then dropped down to KS and killed 6 more I think, then we went to Michigan and killed 2 within an hour of getting there. The day before we left TN, my son killed his 4th one here and I killed my 2nd in KY. So in a total of about 8 days between the 3 of us, we killed 18 birds in 5 states. That was probably the pinnacle of my turkey hunting life. After the fires, the areas I USED to hunt are just dirt and knee high bushes now so I had to move a little and thats how I ended up close to Joe. Thing is, neither one of us knew where in the whole state that the other was hunting! Its a small world sometimes. Where I hunt out there now is private land and its either feast or famine. I dont have access to hunt enough private ground to chase them like I prefer to so I have to wait them out. [/QUOTE]
