Shuster and Biggie will be joining us Friday week for the opener with the hint of Krispy Cremes on their breath from the long trec from Ga. Man ole Man.....

Good luck there Joebuck. I`ve already had my pop up blind in the yard practicing out of it. I hope to kill one with a homemade longbow this spring.
While you got the big redneck down there try and help him with his shooting....
Great pics.RC

Very cool pics. what part of FLA were those taken in?

joebuck · February 19, 2008, 03:44:00 PM

bbassi..it's south fl....sometimes we have to part the hogs to get into the woods!

JC...you wouldn't shoot a hog would you? You know what Sam Roberts says you got when you kill a hog?.....a dead hog.

RC...i feel sorry for that 1st bird that walks by you. Biggie says you taught almost everything he knows.

Jeff Roberts · February 19, 2008, 07:10:00 PM

Joey, if you are overcome with the desire to shoot a pig, leave them brown nose omes alone.

Yard Carp???

Oh Man!! Y'all Cant be Serious!! :eek: :eek:

BobW · February 19, 2008, 08:24:00 PM

Turkeys, Pigs, and Bears - oh my! Yes, said like in the Wizard of Oz.

Could be another form of a red neck slam.....or make an interesting table spread.

Have fun (I'm jealous).

RC · February 19, 2008, 08:29:00 PM

I`ll be honest ,I have left a gobbling turkey when a pig squealed. i can`t help it. RC

Feathered yard carp. Thats the perfect name for them. They reak havoc on a field of corn when it first comes up. I do my best to put the spank on em in the spring. But, we are only allowed one here in Michigan. At least in the fall we can kill a hen too, thus limiting the damage. Too many deer are blamed for the crop damage turkeys cause. This bad winter will help. Feathered carp, I agree.

Good luck in Florida.

Man I wish I had hogs like that down here in Texas.

laddy · February 20, 2008, 02:23:00 AM

What 's that box thing hanging from the tree?

Kevin Bahr · February 20, 2008, 03:20:00 AM

OK, Joey... Let me throw this out there for y'all. Which one of you guys is the best turkey caller? I know the perfect place to find out...at the PBS turkey calling contest in Pittsburgh. We got some really cool prizes and not enough entries. Whaddya say?

Benny Nganabbarru · February 20, 2008, 03:41:00 AM

Wicked photos! It's good to see pictures of bears in Florida. I recall reading about them from the classic bowhunting books, but had no idea they were still there. I hope you guys have a ball!

Guru · February 20, 2008, 05:11:00 AM

Good for you Joey...that's a fine group you hang with!

Best of luck bud

Steve O · February 20, 2008, 06:45:00 AM

Joey,

Aren't you supposed to be slaving away on your turkey presentation for PBS??? Oh yeah, more research

joebuck · February 20, 2008, 11:08:00 AM

kevin B....I'm defintiely in....could you enter me? i don't know who to call, my dog ate my magazine

SteveO...You need to change plans and come to PBS. i'm almost through with presentation. Just waiting on one pic from Biggie and Marty showing their unique way of turkey hunting.

Curt..I love hanging out with these guys because i always look 50# lighter...but don't trust them with a plate of fried turkey tenders....

Marty · February 20, 2008, 07:25:00 PM

Joebuck, I've come up with a simple menu.Friday Sat. and Sunday eve--Pot Roast.

Sure hope you've been practicin! I notice you haven't posted the pictures of last year's bird on your thread.

I'm sittin with you the whole time you're there so the truth will be known! Can't wait.

Steve O · February 20, 2008, 09:27:00 PM

Joebuck,

It is killing us not to go to PBS--we keep trying to figure out how to make PA not 16 hours out of the way going to IA/KS!

You guys have a doughnut feeder to bait Biggie's stand? Is that the secret? :eek:

joebuck · February 20, 2008, 09:51:00 PM

Steve O ..Biggie has really tighten the strings on Marty in the blind according to conduct rules. Something about No Cell phones, only 1 methane gas leak, 2 Donut rule each morning. Marty couldn't handle it so he has jumped blinds and rooted over to mine. Have you ever tried calling up a longbeard while your partner is on the Cell telling his wife to feed the horse,dog, cut the grass, take out the garbage....its a chore hunting down there.. Iowa is utopia I heard.
