Is this the fellow, who spent his days shooting penned birds. The ole man would be proud. Never forget.
Go back and re-read my post. Your reading comprehension is even lower than usual today.

If you're up there doing boots on the ground studies, have you ever considered that they might not like dems?

Dems?

As usual, craig, you make less sense.Every time you post.

I do love the punctuation that AI voice to text puts into my pulse. Don't you?

Meanwhile, why don't you start the thread about your shotguns. I still don't remember a single post from you that ever said anything about your shotguns? You have one, right?

Then you make even less sense than usual, but always entertaining.

Now about those guns you don't have??? Tell us something about them.

Given the right set of circumstances, turkeys could survive living in the eastern 1/2 of northern Minnesota. But, that doesn’t mean that region is good turkey habitat.

They are there. So what? Nature will eventually let us know if they were capable of survival in that region. Unless human interference keeps nature at bay for just a bit.

Best,
Ted

Well, I guess we'll all have to agree then that humans are doing a jolly great job of keeping the weather more comfortable for turkeys up there.

Given that they are expanding into the range, however, it does seem that they're doing rather well up there. It's hard to be a consistently expanding population in bad habitat.Would you not say? Not impossible.Mind you, but it takes very, very special circumstances for it to be otherwise. And you know about those circumstances, right?

I like them, quite a bit. They go bang when I pull the trigger, quite a bit more often than not. Hmmm, I don't have a new revolver for a long time, been thinking about that recently, maybe a long range varmint rig. We'll see, or at least I will.

Well that is great.
Let's hope you post a few pictures of your double guns. One of these days very soon.

Now go out and get that revolver, and shoot some coyotes.

And grouse eating turkeys too.

...right?

No it's not. Bugs, shoots and field seeds are everywhere. I suppose very, very special circumstances means, without waste from commercial corn production, we have bad habitat, lol.
