TURKEY HUNTING

Well I have been dusting off all my turkey gear and getting ready for the season.  I treated myself to a new call.  a slate, pot call.  I was online at REALTREE.com going through the turkey forum and came across a guy who makes calls.  AJCUSTOMCALLS.COM.  his name is Andy Smith and he makes beautiful calls!!!! and I just got it today and it sounds and looks great.  He has GREAT prices too.  If your a turkey hunter in the market for a hand made, custom autographed call,Andy is the guy to contact.

Happy hunting.

What?........no photo?

 That would mean he would have to let go of it.

 

Cooool.... I'm looking forward to seeing a pic of Andy kneeling behind a big tom with it's tail all fanned out.

Turkey Hunting... next on my bucket list!!!!

Chucke, you must have watched the movie. We all need a Bucket List 

BLASTIN' AND CASTIN'  thats the way to roll.  Couple of pics, with all the various wood used.  I was playing with the call last night and had a turkey at my door.  he was a PEEPING TOM

Something about that sounds so wrong ...

Why did I know someone was going to comment about that?

Can't avoid a chance to pimp....lol.

A part of our 2008 fundraiser we are selling some turkey calls and some turkey call/DVD combos.

Having nothing to do with turkey (or FISHING  (sorry)).....I just bought myself a Lyman .50-cal "Great Plains Hunter" muzzleloader with 32-inch bbl and 1:34 rifling twist  for $409  (Lyman's price on it is $624)...

....with bullet molds for:  395-grain solid conical, 190-grain round-ball, and a 354-grain "minnie" design.     

All-costs-considered it's about $.50/shot with a full load and the 395-grain bullet, and just over half that, (because of reduced powder charge and lead costs) for the round-ball.

Figure 1700 fps with 6" high at 100, and 8" low at 200.   Bullet-velocity at 200 will be 925 fps...and with a 8-inch group at 200 yds.

Black powder is fun......and a .50-cal 400-grain bullet is good for Grizzley and Moose (not that I'm going for either...but just to say...it's a formidible thing.)
