What's with all the arguing?

[howl]

Some of us are tagged out and jonesin' while others got no birds and a monkey on their back.

I think I'll go start a thread on burning turkey nests.

When it all comes down to it, there are some of us that just come on here to irritate people.  I won't name names.  We all know who we are.   

[guesswho]

And some are pretty good at it

[Turkeybutt]

We are a family, and dysfunctional and at times delusional as we are, there are good people here who are willing to share stories, photos, tips and how to do things. That is what is so great about this place! Some of us should only be left out of the attic for turkey season or on holidays and locked up the rest of the time. Sure, we might squabble and kick some dirt but in the end 99% of the people here look out for and try to help others.

I am far newer to Old Gobbler than many on the site so I cannot say I have a long term perspective.  I continue to enjoy the site.  I have learned and continue to learn a great deal.  I appreciate the feedback I have received on many topics.  I value the different opinions and respect everyone's right to voice their opinion.  That said, I do not always agree some opinions.  I do, however, realize my opinion is worth very little if I won't listen to opposing views and continually re-evaluate my perspective in the light of new facts.  Fortunately, I think most of us approach these topics with a spirit of fraternal discussion.  I hope it remains so in the future.

Y'all ticked about crowded public land.  In TX we don't have much public, and 98% of that is by draw and takes four or five years to get enough points to draw.  I kind of feel for FL hunters, but the other option is to go pay to hunt.  I just cut a big old check for a hunting lease for another year so pay up or deal with the crowds.

God Bless America, we can travel to other states and kill all their birds.

Everybody is arguing because once again they are all wrong, and I am right. Geez guys it ain't complicated. The sooner everyone thinks and does exactly like me the better off everything will get.

To be honest the site seemed to take a very negative turn during Covid. Not everyone that was here but some and many newcomers that had no respect for Shannon's rules.

[SumToy]

It is not OG, Facebook, or anything else.   It is the way of the world now days.   Folks cant even figure what bath room to go in and fuss about it.     The problem now no one is happy and think everyone around them should not be happy.  So they get online hide behind a computer and tell you what they will do.  Then call a buddy tell them to get on and help him out.   

[Spitten and drummen]

It's called intense fellowship not arguing.

That's an all out lie happy!!  We can't both always be right! ?

 It's turkey season, it's spring. Yeah they go hand in hand, both my two most favorite things!

To the OP... I respect your post, I agree 100%.
To BBcoach, I agree.


I wish there was never a duck to fly over Arkansas. On public ground, walk. Expect small acreage to be crowded. If you primarily hunt public ground try hunting during the week. The pressure will be less, yes it will!

If you can't afford to take time off from work during the week it's not my fault, it's not an OOS fault, it's your fault! Your decision!

Yeah, I am tired of hearing the crying and whining too. Go hunting,  hunt harder, then hunt harder than that. Don't just cry because you don't kill a turkey and someone else does.

I define luck as this: while setting on my couch a gobbler walks through my yard and I kill it because I have NO time to hunt. That's lucky! Once you leave your house you define your luck! Make preparations and get it done.
