      Well, then I should be pretty well prepared. I've got 26 years of being patient. I'm from Houston and I started at 12 o'clock yesterday and I'm writing this at 2:16 in the morning just outside of Birmingham Alabama March 2 which as far as I've been told is turkey season which works out because my inheritance was an over under 12 gauge.!!! and I couldn't afford a proper bow.
      I had a buddy I met in community college, who I thought was still living in Canada, who taught me archery and makes his own bows but he.... I got tired of being patient and not having any of my phone calls returned but always having to return phone calls and do things for other people.
      Ted Kozinski was right man he was right about every single goddamn thing except targeting a secretary at a random Bank of America location instead of just figuring out where someone like Ben Bernacki lives lives 🤷🏾‍♀️

    I appreciate this breakdown, I am new to hunting period. And it's been hard to find consistent information on hunting period. Nothing is 100%, or can replace experience. But for someone who has fished his whole life. Hunting is the most challenging thing I have done yet. 3 years no birds so far going out again this year in 2 weeks. And 5 years no deer lol, I am hoping this is my year though :).

      If that's your expert opinion, then I have to believe it's purely just experience and different strokes for different folks. I'm traveling the country pretty much as a nomad until I get up enough money to buy enough acreage to build on, and I've gone fishing more than a few times. I wouldn't say I'm terrible but I end up catching the weirdest shit. I'm not using Annette. I'm using a fishing rod. Keep in mind. Remember, catching a crab and when I was a kid, I somehow caught a muscle.... with a fishing hook

    • @Surfbogie07
      @Surfbogie07 3 місяці тому

      @@Wetknees I have crab down, fishing mostly mastered for specific species. I finally got two turkey under my belt and 3 deer now. Hunting is considerably harder than fishing though. Animals like to move to private land so if you get your own land you’ll likely be good esp if you can find something bordering public.

    Very informative video Jay! Only thing I would question is the aging of a Tom. Obviously a Jake is easily identified by his tail feathers but after he turns 2 years old, there isn’t an easy way to tell if he’s 2, 3, 4, 5, or 8. The spurs and beard do not indicate age based of scientific research. Check out some of Dr. Mike Chamberlain’s (from UGA) literature or podcast that’s he’s been on.
