I am of the same opinion that on a county level it is a great thing...not to sure about the stability of the organization as a whole but I think even up to the state level it is a good thing as well...I will wait until I hear from the president and committee that I have left messages with prior to making my decision...

If you guys were going to start a local club (doesn't have to be a NWTF club) what are the main things you would focus on (obviously habitat and more turkeys :P)...but in an area dominated by hunting clubs how would you go about getting all of them united for the common cause...and do you help the game lands as well by giving them money to improve habitat for the turkeys that are there?

I think Paided means grossly over-paid. Good term. ;D

Talking to several guys older than me sat back in the 1970`s there weren`t to many birds around. Drive down the road now there`s quite a few. Don`t know if the NWTF had a hand in that or not. If they did than I thank them. What I do know is when you go to the banquets the merchandise for the silent auction is junk but they still expect you to pay top $ for the tickets!! Last time I went I got some tickets for my sponsorship and really had no interest in anything they offered. I watched a guy win 3 guns; he just happened to be the same guy handling all the FFL stuff through his store :-\ Don`t think I need to go anymore

Hmmm...............trying to think if I've ever seen...or heard of turkeys being turned loose in my neck of the woods.........nope. I have seen them, in the magazine, turning easterns loose in California. But yet, Lower Florida is the only place you can kill an oceola. I've heard that they reserve a block of rooms at Opreyland every year at a lower rate then rent them out to us at the normal rate. Non-profit, yea right. That just means they have to some how spend all that money they take in.

Sponsor member for over 15 yrs and I can say that it is not the same organization that it once was!
In the early years it was easy to see where the money was being spent in conservation.  In the present it is easy to see that it is all about the salaries!!!
If it was not for the JAKES program I would have nothing more to do with the NWTF.

It just means that you value your relationship more than your ego.
