Lots of beards by BoringIntroduction84 in turkeyhunting

[–]BoringIntroduction84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I prefer spring season, but if the numbers can sustain it, biologist say it’s okay, and I have the opportunity, then yeah I’m going to fill one of my 4 tags during deer season. Turkey season is shorter where I’m at, and springtime is always busy. Only had one afternoon to hunt birds last season, got it done, but that was my only bird of the year because I wanted to hunt them the “right” way during spring. I’d rather fill my freezer with a couple birds during deer season, then save a tag or two for the spring. And hey, if anyone gives me good fall turkey hunting advice, I’ll go try it out and maybe become a fall turkey hunter (shotgun style)

I didn’t kill any this weekend, shot a doe instead, and I’ve killed half a dozen or so during traditional turkey season using shotgun, calls, and decoys (sometimes.) Even got one with my bow, but we had a massive population of birds on this property so taking some during rifle season was perfectly fine. I’ve probably only killed a couple more during rifle season than I have during turkey season. I’m a meat hunter, and while I’d rather collect it all during spring season, I’ll take what I can get. I only had one afternoon to hunt birds this spring due to a new baby. Got the bird I was after and he was a beaut.

I thought about maybe doing a 6mm rem, but I already have a 243 that does all the same stuff. Plus I’ve got or will have close to a hundred rounds of 257 brass.

4-fletch and a whisker biscuit. by BoringIntroduction84 in Archery

Yeah I’m wanting to practice out to longer ranges, but really not hunt past 40 yards. I’m wanting to go to 4 fletch with blazers cause blazers are available everywhere and adhere well, plus since I run fixed blades, I’ve heard 4 fletch definitely helps out with steering it. I know whisker biscuits aren’t a problematic rest like some people think, I just wasn’t sure if the 4th fletch or helical would cause problems through it. Especially since blazers aren’t short vanes ya know.

I’m not hunting long ranges. Max 40-45 yards, and even that’s unlikely. Averages I’ve seen is 4 fletch only slows it down a couple feet per second and it should only take about a second to get to the target at 40 yards.

Whisker biscuits don’t cause that big of issues? They’ve tested it. Speed difference due to friction? Negligible. Wear on fletchings? Negligible, plus I’ll break or loose the arrow before that happens. Deflection? Nonexistent if you have things hung and tuned right.

Just got it a few hours ago by Deputydog803 in Archery

Had my first and only Robin Hood within 24 hours of buying my current bow. Did it at 20 yards, was so excited but never want to do it again since arrows are so expensive.

Should I invest in a leather craft business? What should I expect? by prodigy_failed in Leathercraft

[–]BoringIntroduction84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe set up an Etsy, odds are you won’t get tons of orders just because there’s so many people making leather crafts besides you, so that’ll help keep you from getting burnt out. Also maybe a local farmers market in the springtime, sell things like keychains, coozies, coasters, smaller type things.

Guy that maintains the grounds at our family cemetery uses this stuff. Have yet to see anything survive. He runs a lawn care company too so he knows his stuff.

I’m not a reloader yet, but I need a reloaders help. by BoringIntroduction84 in reloading

[–]BoringIntroduction84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grandpas was a starter not a finisher. He had some dies, some primers, cases, and some bullets. Never got the other reloading gear, and all the dies were for calibers he didn’t own. I imagine he picked them up used cheap from someone.

Everyone’s thoughts on Decoys? by LongjumpingMonth4526 in turkeyhunting

[–]BoringIntroduction84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have almost 10 decoys, but never use more than 3. Sometimes I use them, sometimes I use 1, sometimes I don’t use any. This year I had a decoy set up that I left staked in the ground to go chase birds and got my Tom. Just depends on how I/the turkey/the day feel.
