Charlie, I would love to take a turkey with one of my muzzleloaders but, haven't made the effort so far. The few I have taken have all been with black powder in brass cases. The wife and I haven't been turkey hunting for several years but do want to get back to it. Where we live there are few turkeys, that is unless you count the non-feathered ones. We have to drive a minimum of two to four hours to get to an area that has a reasonable population. |

Yes, that's what a lot of us do these days. No more walking out the back door and dropping a couple of shells in the ol' Parker. Too many people... too many houses where fields and woodlots used to be when we were young. I drive 3 hours to get to heaven and that's not a long drive when you consider what's waiting on the other end.

Well, I am fortunate enough to live where they still walk thru the yard along with a few bears and other critters, my neighbor is a ways away and do not see any development in the future since I border the National Park Service land for about 1/2 mile, looking forward to the late spring hunt of the wood boring bee, with my H&R 22 cal loaded with snake shot, nine shots at the pesky critters and it is fun, There is something to be said when a man can go out in his front yard and take a pee without someone bitching about it, Well the old lady raises hell with me for doing it , but what the hell you only go around once, Gary
