    Thank goodness there aren't many fields on public land, so the decoy hunters won't be bothering those birds at least........and the ones that do end up in a hunting accident. ......

    I'd support outlawing decoys outright but they sure do make it easier to have a kid's or old man's gun pointed in the right direction. A turkey is nothing more than a crack head with binoculars strapped to his head. Stupid to the point of being unpredictable a fair amount of time. 99 out of a 100 can be killed by simple means but that 1 out of 100 can wreck many a hunting plan. Killing that one understandably inflates a hunters ego whether he shows it or keeps it under wraps. Just another opinion from a poet.

    No decoys, no calls, you should have to hunt them with a sharp stick while naked. Then Ricky Chen can make a video and go viral.

    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    If FacePage and InstaLife would ban pictures of dead animals, I suspect lots of these rubberheads wouldn't even turkey hunt any more.
    Crops are harvested, animals are killed.

    fucking turkey poets.... I swear. Y'all are as bad as fags. If you don't like how someone hunts don't hunt with them.

    These same bastards will want to outlaw fishing with live shrimp and mud minnows here shortly.

    Who gives a shit how you kill them as long as you only kill as many as you have tags for.

    If you pass a law outlawing male decoys what 3 laws are you going to remove from the books?
    Amendment II A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

    I guess the same goes for deer, ducks, fish and any other game. Who cares how you kill them as long as you kill no more than the limit. I've seen how that argument goes but would enjoy seeing how it plays out here.

    The limit is set with an opportunity to kill 3 birds, but with no intention of every hunter being capable of killing 3 birds.
    Wildlife is a public resource, not a private one. It's everyones business how you hunt. If it's not I want lead shot back for ducks.

    I do want lead shot back for ducks.

    The fact that we can shoot a migratory dove with lead, but not a duck pisses me off.

    Why not outlaw using any kind of turkey choke. Improved cyl only with 2 3/4 shells. If you want to reduce the number of turkeys being killed. Y’all crack me up

    P.s. I think all forms of live bait should be outlawed too, as well as Carolina rigs.

    TSS is more deadly than a damn decoy. Now that you can buy TSS there is no need for a male decoy you can kill them at 100 yards RIGHT?

    You can shoot all the ducks you want to with lead shot. Fella told me one time that 2 3/4" 7.5's would kill hell out of a wood duck.....

    You can kill 3 turkeys with a 410 but if you hunt with a 12ga you can kill one every other year. Make you nancies happy?

    This thread wasn't as gay as I expected. At least not yet.

    Glenn nailed it. But I'd add bottomland camo to the list.
