Was asked why go hunting and shoot a Turkey in the woods when you can simply go to a grocery store to get your turkey?

Me.....Last time I got my Turkey in the grocery store in the frozen food section I scared to many people when my shotgun went off. grin

..... because they live in the woods and Roost in the woods and there is no challenge in getting them from the grocery store!

I have yet to kill a wild Turkey that has one of those neat little plastic plungers that tells me when it's done!

Years ago at a dinner party an obvious anti asked my wife "...how do you possibly kill a wild turkey...".

My wife didn't blink and said, " Pete likes 3 inch copper 5's.."

The wild turkey discussion got quiet.

A friend of mine went into the grocery store with coupons and grocery ads pasted all over himself as camo, then went to the freezer where the turkeys were, and bagged a good one. Several people thought that was strange. Those who knew him, knew it was the thrill of the hunt.
