Rifle? JFC that's fuggin heresy.
I use a recurve bow.
I have hunted and killed turkey with longbows, recurves, rifles, shotguns and muzzleloaders.
To heck with the purists, go out and have fun. If it wasn't for the fun of the spring season I would say kill them all. They wrecks lawns, hay pens and carry a disease that kills young calves.
I’m thinking about trying Power Bait with a spinning rod. Why not offend two factions of purists at one time?
Lol!!!
Set up a buncha june bugs tied off with fishing line to a swivel stake.
Get hens running around in circles after em.
Toms be chasing the hen that is chasing a june bug.
Some of the funniest schit is watching hens out bugging in fields.
Bout 2 more weeks here they will start feeding on insects as the weather warms up more.
