>>2681028Never know where you're going to see a pheasant... Always good not to go home empty handed. Best part of last story was that there were a few people who liked wild turkey so much more they took up hunting and they were coming to me for tips. I am like, bro, that was the first turkey I have ever shot. Usually turkey hunting involves sitting underneath a tree for days waiting for a dumbass bird to get within 30 yards of you. Boring as shit, as OP mentioned. Only got the tag because of that fucking tom.
Before I went to the corporate world was in the Army, then a PMC, and worked a bunch of odd jobs through college as someone who forcibly removed squatters from homes, tracking down bail jumpers, body guarding, whatever.
