We have called them across a creek a few times, but we have had them hang up on the other side of the creek a few times too! Getting a bird to take flight and come in to your call, in my opinion, has a lot to do with how late into the season it is and how their hen situation is.
Turkey in the spring is some of the best hunting you can do, hands down! The only thing I would say is don't do the owl hoot. It puts the birds on alert. If you can roost them the night before then go set up on them as undetected as possible.
We used Partitions for years on whitetail, phenomenal round for whitetail. We switched to Accubonds and am very happy with those as well. Texas, Oklahoma, PA, Florida, Wv whitetail.
Accubond is a little better at distance but the partition really holds up more is really the only trade off. I...
I heard something of that nature and was shocked. Would be like me helping people outlaw their Caterpillar Industrial engines. It is literally shutting down everything that I live off of haha.
I have a Tikka T3X in 7mag and love it! The cold hammer forge barrel is really hard to beat and what you get for what you pay is also very hard to beat. My Browning's are great, nothing wrong with them at all. The tikka comes out of the box as a better shooter if you ask me. Can't speak on...
I LOVE IT! Great work on your part. A bag like this comes in handy for me and my work. I often need an overnight or weekend bag. I pack one and throw it in the truck because some long day jobs turn into over night stays.
I mis upland hunting. When my GSP passed, I stopped going for the most part. I go with my cousin and his dogs from time to time, but nothing like before. We upland hunt in October out here.
The 99 is great, but they offered them in a take down. If the one you are looking at is a take down and was used much.. it will most likely have some play in it and that typically results in erratic shot placement. They are great guns, fun to hunt with, and unique. If you find a good one, just...
While I don't have issues and like my Leupolds.. I have really came to love my Swaro's and recently Schmit & Bender... I use to really be a die hard to NF and they are great scopes, but lately I have started drifting away from them for a couple reasons.
25-06, i may never like that cartridge because of one rifle haha! That said, the quarter bore is getting so popular and i can't look away from the reputation of the 257 wby and it supposedly dropping deer in their tracks. That's appealing to me, I hate tracking lol!
What temps were you...
You have really taken a liking to this powder! I have 1lb on my shelf. My plan is to shoot it soon while it's cold out, then again as it starts to warm, and one more time this summer. I really want to see that swing. A lot of people speak highly of it, you can't ignore that.
