To read “Illumination in the Flatwoods”. I do it every year right before turkey season.

If you haven’t read this book, buy it right now! It’s just unbelievable. Turkey hunters take note.

I think you can find a short video about the project on youtube. It’s called “My life as a wild turkey” or something similar.

I have seen that ”MY LIFE AS A WILD TURKEY” on PBS . Truly amazing . I hope to see it again .

I’m an addict of turkey hunting as well as a student of the turkey .

Want to be a better turkey hunter ? Spend a lot of time with the turkeys . They are the best teachers .

Great book. Intelligently written, with a more personal approach to understanding animal behavior.

I pored over ‘Better on a Rising Tide’ last week before sending to a friend. That book is my annual pre-Spring read.

I’ve tried to find that one several times but it is not cheap.

I’m about to start reading Hutto’s 2nd book, “The Light in High Places: A Naturalist Looks at Wyoming Wilderness, Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep, Cowboys, and Other Rare Species.”

Looking forward to it.

Not to bring up old topics (or open old wounds as the case may be), but it’s $10 on eBook at the “A” place. Be well.

I need the paper in my hands. Thanks for the info though! I bet broadhead can take note. He reads a lot on e-reader.

Bunyan, this is in me and joe’s opinion, the best kelly book.

I e-book, paper book and even audio book. If you have not listened to Tom Kelly read his own books on audio book, you have really missed something.

These old folks….always gotta be teaching you something.:D

If the “old folks” weren’t willing to teach us young whipper-snappers, there’d be no learning to pass on to future generations. Take the time to sit and LISTEN to a few old timers while they sit and jaw over coffee in an old cafe or at the feed store or somewhere they congregate, and you MIGHT just learn something about life lessons.

It’s an ongoing joke with Broadhead and me. He’s close to twice my age and he’s one of my best friends. When we meet somebody new, I often introduce him as my dad.:D

10-4, Etter….I wasn’t particularly telling you to pay attention to the “old folks”, but more as a general statement. They have a lot of knowledge tucked away under those white hairs (or no-hairs, in some cases…lol).

Listen to him “son.” Mr. Scott speaks good words. 😀

Seriously, Michael, that is so true. I have a good friend who is an octogenarian. He remembers when electricity was installed in his childhood home. He still owns the land where he was born. He surfs the net and uses a computer as well as anyone. He has seen many changes in his lifetime. And, he has so much to share. I’ve learned much from him just by listening.

I’ve had the privilege of attending Tom Kelley’s turkey hunting school at Westervelt Lodge in Alabama, not just once but twice. He’s a real character, more entertaining and just fun to be around than you can imagine. Also, a real gentleman true to his southern roots.
