Today is Tuesday and I am beat. Not to mention it's a 7:00 a.m. class. Which means I have to wake up at 5:30 after going to see my girlfriend until 11 which was a terrible idea. I was tired at 5 when I drove up there and just never should have went up there. Anyway enough with the complaining. There is roughly 62 days until turkey season opens!! I've been doing some research and I think I'm going to take a kid youth hunting at Compton Hollow Conservation Area in Northview MO that way I don't have to let him hunt all my good spots. I don't think there will be all that many people there since it will only be youth season. I'm hoping so anyway. The information online says that it has a good turkey population so hopefully I can get him on his first bird. Don't get me wrong I love to deer hunt, mostly with a bow. But birds seem to be what get me. From ducks, and geese, to a gobbling tom way up high on a ridge, running in to your gun barrel and feeling the ground shake when he lets out one of those majestic gobbles. There really is a feeling like no other. I think why I like to bird hunt so much is they are so much more vocal than deer. You call to ducks, geese, and turkey to get them in but deer you pretty much just sit and wait for them to walk by you.
