I didn't vote because I couldn't find one that said "Always shoot them as they return to roost while I'm sipping suds and watching the Mariners while sitting on my buddies porch".

In all seriousness usually bait them in, but not in this state of course.  They are usually just a target of opportunity to be shot when the deer hunting is slow.   Stupid, filthy birds and they aren’t that good eating.

hey I wanna hunt with you that sounds like delightful method.....


I already said I am gonna shoot at it in its roost, miss, have the bird fly down from its roost... try to attack me at which point I whack it with the buttstock of my youth model single shot 410 that I believe is the ideal turkey gun :) and render it unconscious if not dead.....

I guess this isn't too serious of a poll.   :dunno:  I read the "out of a tree" one as from a tree stand and you are "missing stalked one and/or ambushed it."

For the goofy ones you missed "snuck up on another hunter's set, while shooting his decoy I accidentally hit the real tom he was calling in".

I shoot 'em in the egg when they don't run near as fast. Didn't see that one on the poll.

This is the type that I usually hunt, there not very wary and you can harvest them by almost any means.  :chuckle:

No need to stalk, I twist turrets.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I've heard golf clubs, a seven iron specifically, work real well on these.   :tup:
