Two in on day? Season over

[bammerslammer 50]

If it were legal here in Alabama I would. I love to hunt Turkey. Not necessarily shoot them. I'd call or film for my dad or brother the rest of the season.

Maybe on a trip, not at home. We can shoot 2 a season here, any legal time and method. I do like to "win the battle" but the experience is what I like. I eat what I kill but do not need to. If I just need food, I will go to the local supermarket. Some people still hunt and fish to ease the financial burden of buying food. To those people, take all the legal fish and game you are entitled to. Only my 2 cents. Al Baker

I'd take 2 in one day if it were legal here.

Since I hunt SC every year, and usually another state as well, I'd do it if given the opportunity, and both were nice gobblers. If it was back in the day when I only hunted FLA, then I'd have a decision to make.

I was on a trip in Oklahoma with a friend from PA his first Rio hunt. I'm talking five minutes into our first set up two gobblers come right in on his side. He shots the first one and the other is just standing there. I can't get a shot so I'm saying shoot, shoot, shoot. He says wasn't going to end his hunt in the first five minutes. Bad luck and biblical rain sets in and at the end of the hunt he's only one not tagged out and hunting in the biblical rain. His words to me and ever since have been. I SHOULD'VE SHOT THAT SECOND ONE! To each his own but where legal a bird in hand is good two even better!

I only hunt Florida, and two years ago I was out with my dad on opening morning and I called in a couple birds. He shot his, I gave a couple yelps and shot the second right of the top of his birds back. The next weekend we went to another spot and doubled again on our second set up of the morning. It was a blast for sure, turkey hunting at it fullest and it made some good memories but the rest of the season sucked. And my buddies who "kinda" hunt just didn't have their head in the game so there was really no more hunting for me that year. To me its not about tagging out, but just about getting after them.
I will not be killing two in a day, unless maybe its the last day.

My thought has always been that you cheat yourself or someone else of a recreational experience, maybe several recreational experiences without doubling or tripling or quadrupling the experience.

My attitude exactly.  Shooting more than one bird at a time is going from "hunting" to "body counting".  Once again, the thrill of turkey hunting is in all that goes on before the trigger is pulled.  Killing more than one bird at a time is just eliminating the opportunity for yourself or someone else to experience that thrill again on another occasion.

Classic example of angering the turkey gods right there. Here's how it works: The turkey gods place turkey hunters in the woods to test individual turkeys on their worthiness to be a turkey. If they allow a hunter to call them in within shotgun range, they have disgraced themselves as turkeys and must be removed. This is how balance is
maintained in the turkey world. When a hunter consciously decides not to follow through, they incur the wrath of the turkey gods.

Since I hunt public land ( Florida WMA's ) almost exclusively, 2 in one day doesn't come into play. I have however finished my season by 8:00am on day two. I still hit the woods every weekend ( sans shotgun ) and called for  my Dad and buddies. Had a blast and enjoyed every minute of it. Now if I couldn't continue to at least participate in the hunt I probably wouldn't take two birds on my opening weekend.

I've always wanted to either kill two in one shot or kill two on the same hunt, but I had the opportunity to do that last year in Washington on opening day and could not bring myself to do it.
