Why? If he's within 25 steps (turkey hunters always say steps instead of yards), he's had it. I don't believe in shooting at a turkey gobbler past 35 steps anyway, and I know that distance perfectly because I either wait until he's that close or he gets away without a shot. The dudes with 10 gauges shooting at them at 65 steps is what I despise.

But nothing bothers me more than using a decoy. I TRULY despise those damn things. Made for people who refuse to learn how to call a turkey or where to set up for the best chance at calling him in.

But you have to understand something: I'm a severe old-school turkey hunter from the Deep South where it all started, and there's just some things I have bought into over the past 40 years about this sport that I believe to be worthy of adhering to, and I suffer poorly those who take shortcuts.
