Cool Goat Coachy. Pretty skittish are they?

I set a new personal record Saturday morning, I saw 5 cottonmouths in one hunt. Here's pictures of 4 of the 5, along with an unlucky bullfrog that had all 4 legs eaten by something and was still quite alive. Talk about a bad day!

Cheers Guys , We do eat them over here , but only the young Nannies , not the smelly Billies .
 They can be skittish , but like any other animal , get the wind right and you will have success

This is taken well before sundown. No hunting on this evening. They say when the sky turns green it's time to take shelter. Lots of Tornados and hail.

Yea, even up here, "If she's green, she's mean"  Usually hail up here.

Neat pic

For every "give" there is also a "take". Two side of the proverbial coin. I feel compelled to shed a little light after the storm. CK

 

Smile! There's a great day comming!

This was taken last week early on a foggy, drizzly morning during a turkey hunt.  She was alone and hung around for about five minutes, the only thing I saw all morning........

Nice turkey! This past Saturday I almost got my first turkey. I primarily hunt State Land during Michigans late hunt. I've had a few close encounters in the past, but usually the birds are so call shy by then, that it's hard to locate them.
Saturday morning I went out at 5:30am and set up in a green field with my 56# Predator recurve and Ameristep blind. At first light I began calling and had a hen come in. With nothing happening there I moved to down to a field that had standing corn from last season. I set-up and the rain came.....HARD!! I read through Hebrews in my bible for about an hour, then I spotted another hen. She came about thirty yards from my decoy then wandered back into the woods. Ten minutes later she came back with a NICE Tom. He kept teasing me, puffing up and strutting, but would never come within 60 yards. I'm gonna keep after him until the season ends or someone else takes him. My buddies keep telling me to take a gun but I refuse! Even after getting skunked for the last 3 years, I want my first longbeard with my recurve. I guess I'm stubborn!

I never saw a turkey with hair plugs/transplants before.    

Looks like male turkeys are as vain as some male humans.

I've been told that being a good bowhunter requires you to know the species you pursuit intimately. Well, I seem to think a little out-of-the-box most of the time anyway. Is this intimate enough? If you are really quick you can snag one every once in awhile. Heeeheee! Better keep a close eye on where MaMa is! CK
