H4820 Turkey Bill, Senate Subcommitte next Thursday.....

[M2Field]

Good luck getting that cocksucker to understand that……

How’s the bottle treating you lately. Keep it up

[Timberman22]

And MFers not tagging turkeys…..

Is it me or just coincidental that very few post dead pics of turkeys anymore?

I would like to see check stations again like the old days. If you get caught not checking a bird in you automatically lose your hunting privileges for 5 years and the turkey population will correct itself!!

I don’t post anywhere because what’s the point. Maybe I’ll post my kids now and again.

Couldn’t imagine wanting to hunt with a bunch of cameras and go pros to make YouTube videos.

I wonder what the problem is????

That is certainly ONE of the problems in populated areas but do you really think that's why unpopulated areas of McCormick, Saluda, Newberry, and NE Georgia just to name a few places no longer have birds?
No, its not....

[tman]

Well of course that's not the only issue, but it's a primary contributing factor.

Habitat degradation/minimization/fragmentation/elimination and commercial timber management are probably the major causes. Expansion of urban areas unnaturally inflates corvid and raptor populations. Instagram as a replacement for market hunting driving the glorification of a tailgate photo. All those hurt turkey populations. Bottomline, the more people you have doing those things, the more impacts you will see to the turkeys.

Wonder what increased turkey “hunters” and social media play into the decline?

That thing has been on fire lately. Sheweee

Indeed it has,

Instead of dead turkey pics, maybe y’all should switch things up and post a photo of the tickets a couple of TFC gents got for baiting here recently

Good deal. Everything comes and goes in cycles. The ones bitching do not know what the left side of that bell curve looked like 50 years ago, they just know the peak and how it made them feel good. You don’t want to see the right side of the bell curve.


I read an interesting theory the other day…turkeys are like deer and breed on photo period. Bugs hatch based on temperature so by the time the polts hatch, the bugs are gone and they have less food due to some climate change factors.

That one left a mark

Like the mob that only shows up here to be seen only when turkey season rolls around or some other mob?

Well it is turkey season I like to read about turkeys. If I post the mob shows up to attack so they can be cool in front of the group. Mob mentality. They’d make great democrats. Like I said those who attack are probably feeling guilty about something

The bottom line is, nobody gives one single fuck what a poachers opinion is on wildlife conservation….

Nope. Couldn’t care less. Just pointing out the hypocrisy

Bill has “quit” this place more times than I can count.

[Calibogue]

Bill, I'm sure you have killed far more turkeys than me, however that is not a compliment. I've been doing it for a long time and the fact remains that average Nest initiation date is April the 10th and MOST of the breeding takes place the last week of March and the first week of April
