I have always been in the outdoors fishing and hunting. I am fascinated by trying to kill and figure out big mature deer. well I am friends with a lot of friends of turkey hunters and great ones at that. well I have been into baseball like crazy pretty much played year round and spring is big time for baseball so I didn't get to hunt turkeys big time. well finally I got to go and loved it didn't understand it didn't know anything at all about it. I started reading and going and learning loads every time I went. well luckily I have a great friend that is a great turkey hunter. and he started taking me and I learned even more. I was bit by the bug and have been sense I was 12. I would go hunting in the morning play baseball then go hunting again. I will and always will say, there is abosutely in my world that is better then killing a mature deer and finally everything coming together. but the hunt itself turkey hunting has it going on. i couldn't imagine my life without turkey hunting in it. it would be a huge void in my life.
