I stopped counting at 200 a few years back.
Sounds like a lot but Fort Campbell had a very long fall/winter season and a 2 bird a day limit and for 8 or 9 years Tennessee had unlimited tags and a split two week season. Most years we'd get between 25 and 30...by "we" I mean me and the people we took with us.
Only back up I have right now is Busters frozen semen.

jOe; What breed dog is Buster? Nice looking dog. I bet turkey hunting is fun with a dog like that.
Socialism is almost the worst.

Trying to move around the dead animal pic concept and still illustrate the joys the outdoors brings. A wild apple, homemade sausage, and hot, locally grown bean soup, outdoors on a dreary day. 
Out there doing it best I can.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

He's father was a proven turkey hunting Boykin Spanial and his mother was a Watchtelhunde....Buster was given to me when he was a little bigger than my hand by a lady from Georgia. She crossed the Boykin with the Watchtelhunde to boost the Boykin bloodline at the advice of a turkey hunter the late Parker Whedon. Here's a link to my dog. http://www.turkeydog.org/buster.html

I hunted an area yesterday that is about as boggy as anywhere I've hunted. It was the second time I hunted it this year and both times it wore me slap out. I think I will be spending the rest of this season in a couple of places that are a little easier on my aging body.  Snipe, what is that shotgun? I was going to comment on that gun also. I have a Birmingham boxlock very much like it only with a scolloped action with a bit more engraving coverage. It is an extractor gun with a Greener-type crossbolt. Mine has Birmingham proofs, but the only other markings on it are the name A. Mathers, Dundee. It was re-stocked by a stockmaker in Canada before I acquired it and he put flutes in the comb. It is a 1930's Belgian guild gun. It is my lightest 20 gauge gun at 5 lbs, 8 oz. with a 14 1/2" stock and 28" barrels. Nothing fancy, just a no frills extractor gun that seems to shoot close enough to where I point it and is light to carry. The gun I shot the first few times I hunted this year was a fairly light 6 lbs, 2 oz but those ten less ounces feel like a couple of pounds after a few hours of tromping around in a swamp in Florida weather in waders.
