don't shoot turkeys anymore but we still love calling them .... ^5 to the young hunters that got birds and those that tried .....i found sheds in the past none this year i think thats cool finding them
Trapper, I'm just curious, why did you stop shooting turkeys? Do you not care for eating them?
i don't care for eatting them and i have no one to give them too ...i like calling them just no reason to shoot one lol but i wish you all luck!!!
I understand. I have learned not to cook the whole bird at once, otherwise I end up with too much left over, dried out turkey. And I can clean one almost as quickly as a "slime log". My GF has some wonderful recipes. But I agree, the hunting is the most fun part!
I was listening to a meateater podcast about cooking wild turkey. The biggest mistake people made was cooking it whole.
That's nonsense. I've cooked every wild bird I've gotten whole, skin on. Never had dry meat. Never brined one either unless I was doing a smoked bird. Most people over cook them. It's not a domestic bird from the store, they don't have to be taken to the same internal temp as a domestic bird.
