Favorite Turkey Book Recommendations

[Phantom Gobbler]

Phantom Gobbler, I have had Double Gobble in my collection for some time now but have never started it. If you think it's a good read I'll take it up to turkey camp with me. I was'nt sure if it was a kids book or not. Let me know what you thought of it. Thx, MM

MM:

The cover drawing on Double Gobble, of two Gobblers and a cherry tree in full blossom is a little misleading (makes it look like a childrens book).  The book is a good read and is steeped in Southern humor (Mississippi Style).  Will Primos is friends with many of the people in the stories.  One of my hunting partner's also read it and greatly enjoyed it.

The author discovers that he gets a bad case of "buck fever" when a gobbling tom works his way into the gun that he calls the "YIPS"!  Hope we all get a good dose of the YIPS this spring out chasing our favorite big game bird!!!    

I am looking forward to ordering and reading Bobby Dales second book, "Tales from the Roost."

Thanks for the review P.G. I'm just finishing up a wingbone call for my buddy from a jake he got last fall so I've been skimming through all my books to get some different ideas. I know what you mean about the "Yips". I hope I never find a cure. Thanks again and good luck. MM  P.S. 9 1/2 days to go

BearManRick, One of my hunting partners read Hunting Pressured Turkeys by Brian Lovett last year and found it very informative.

As Brian is the current editor for Turkey and Turkey Hunting Magazine, you can hardly go wrong reading his books and articles.
