[QUOTE="Plateau Hunter, post: 5307792, member: 389"] My first turkey hunt was about the mid 60s I reckon…there were a few native turkeys left on the Plateau north of Savage Gulf…armed with stories from my grandfather, an old Lohman call, and a JC Higgins 12 ga pump I was off…needless to say no turkey were heard nor seen…life happened and I was out of the woods and state for a long time…back to TN in 1999 my cousin urged me to try turkeys as he had become an accomplished turkey hunter by that time…deer and squirrels were my passion…about 2004 or so I gave turkey hunting a try…after making every mistake in the book several times I killed my first gobbler in 2007 I think…since then I have killed several which coincided with the rising turkey population…now that turkeys are much scarcer, hunting will be less productive no doubt…hopefully the turkey numbers will come back and they don’t go the way of quail and ruffed grouse…as y’all know there’s nothing quite like the booming gobble that reverberates through the woods and your chest when he is closing in…good hunting… [/QUOTE]
