Plus if it is legal , still hunting is far more difficult than calling.. I get sick and tired of hearing how difficult it is to kill a turkey with a shotgun.. It is far easier than with a rifle...



Your point is very valid and well-taken. However............

To a man, ALL the guys (except one) I know who use(d) rifles to hunt turkeys............ set up, overlooking a field or a big wooded hillside and just jacked them as they fed, ala shooting a groundhog. Only thing involved there is the same skill it takes to shoot the groundhog and it seems a bit disrespectful to the turkey. But if that's what gives those guys a sense of accomplishment, then whatever. The OTHER guy used a .22LR to roost shoot his birds.

I just ain't a fan.
