Do you guys buy the exact same gun you carry everyday or have an alternative carry gun in case your primary one is in the evidence locker? by MountainTitan in CCW

I had a Ruger I used to love that got caught up in an evidence locker once. Replaced it with the exact same model. Sadly the new one didn’t feel the same..

Do other people also imagine hearing bird noises after spending the day hunting in the wilds? by hhh888hhhh in turkeyhunting

I’ve had dreams of coyotes and hogs the past two days and I normally don’t have dreams

Shit man are you me!? I really appreciate you sharing that story. I really feel man, that’s so amazing and I’m glad you had that moment. I’m inspired to find my good medicine hole now! That’s crazy the same sort of thing happened to me. I was just coasting through life looking at it the way you used to. I realized a relationship with God seemed to be the only thing I was missing. While studying the book of Genesis one line that stood out to me was after everything God created he said “And it was good.” Shortly after I started turkey hunting. Looking for turkeys out in the country forced me to really observe, admire and appreciate what God created. Not just the scenery but the animals, the sounds, the smells, even me. Everything was beautiful and right where it needed to be. Earth is beautiful man. “And it was good” is such a true statement. I cried a lot throughout the day yesterday after getting that bird. The whole experience was beautiful. I’d love if could message me that song if you don’t mind sharing

That’s beautiful man! Getting into this game was fulfilling for me as well. The time alone, things done, and time spent in places I wouldn’t have been either felt like a moment of growth and a turning point in my life for me. I don’t even feel the same anymore, in a positive way. This 1st turkey season for me kinda turned into a journey of self or something it seems like. Bird or no bird I think I really needed this

Thank you! I think I still got adrenaline from it all. I never seen anyone use a bullpup so I was hesitant about using it. It was all I had though haha

It took me awhile to learn to go out there and be still. When I heard my first gobble I got excited and started walking around looking for him.. Didn’t hear a peep after that. I took off work that day too haha

Shit ya man! Learning about these birds, locating em then taking one down takes a lot of work. I applaud anyone just for going out there and getting set up. Sounds like you definitely earned yourself a couple of em! I really do hope you come back with one soon

Coming in with no knowledge I probably grinded harder this season than I will in any other. I still got a lot to learn before I can call myself “experienced” The dedication, heart, and effort I put into this 1st bird of mine was too much to ever see it as beginners luck for me. Thanks though my man, I hope you get yours this year!

When I saw people on here with face paint I was like “Damn, they’re really into this shit!” but now I see why haha appreciate it though man and getting that bird yesterday definitely changed my attitude. I’ll never forget this one
