            You’re doing it wrong, Clay. You’re supposed to put the arrow under the bird, not over it:

            ALWAYS bring two

            Nineteen days and counting …

                Here’s a piggy back tip for those of you who sit on the ground in areas plentiful in ticks. Most are aware of the benefits of treating your clothes with Permethrin to repel ticks. What I do to increase it’s effectiveness is, I treat a cheap camouflage fleece blanket and lay it out to sit on. This creates a barrier to keep even the most persistent bugs from reaching me. In an activity like turkey hunting, where remaining still is critical, this has really helped me keep from having to move alot to pick bugs off me.

                      I kept waiting for him to pull out his old beer bottle….

                      Thanks I was just thinking about turkeys and turkey calls. I’m thinking I want a slate call, can’t break that.

                        That was excellent! Not a video you’ve made I haven’t enjoyed watching and learning some things. The production values are just too cool and set a great vibe. Thanks!
