That’s why they call it hunting and not killing.
And whenever someone says that, they act like they’re the first one to ever say it

“Drop your cocks and grab your socks boys”
“You’re calling too much”
“Be still”
“Pass that bag of eats”
“Should we move the dekes?”
“Damn, they wanted it, just couldn’t commit”
“At least they’re flying”
“The elk are where you find them”

Another Aldo Leopold quote:
“The deer hunter habitually watches the next bend; the duck hunter watches the skyline; the bird hunter watches the dog; the non-hunter does not watch”

I do not hunt turkeys because I want to. I hunt them because I have to. I am helpless in my compulsion.

Can't kill at the house.
If you can see them, they can see you.
True story. Heading out a little late to go duck hunting and swing by my buddy's house to pick him up. Go inside and drink a cup of coffee and I go outside ready to leave. His house is on 20 acres not far from a couple of lakes. Go back inside and in the corner of my eye I see a couple of birds flying over his house heading to the back pasture. Ran around the house and it was two snows. Run back to my truck and grab my calls and hit em. They start a slow turn back and I grab my shot gun and some shells. My buddy is walking out the door, and I tell him to be still. The snows come right back over his house, and I drop the first one it bangs off the roof and falls in the back yard the other one swings around, and I drop it with the second shot. You can kill em at the house after all. CSB.

“He also knows that when he comes back home empty-handed, as he will do regularly, he will have no satisfactory explanation. He is well aware, for he has met dozens of them, of the numbers of people that will approach him on street corners and in bars and at parties, who will open each conversation with, “Well, did you get him yet?” When he answers no, they will be off and running. They will tell him in delighted tones and in the clearest detail the story of a friend of theirs who has a feeble-minded nephew. Of how this nephew is occasionally allowed home on leave from the state funny farm. How that the last time this poor defective creature was home, week before last, he went out in the woods just behind the house, sat on a log, and with a turkey yelper that was given away as a souvenir by a typewriter company in 1937, yelped twice, and killed a turkey that weighed twenty-three pounds—picked.”

“The first turkey that ever came to me on the ground did it a long time ago. I sat there with my hands shaking and my breath short and my heart hammering so hard I could not understand why he could not hear it. The last turkey that came to me last spring had exactly the same effect, and the day that this does not happen to me is the day that I quit.”

Blessed to have hunted with him several times over the years. He is the sole reason I wanted to become a writer….even the below average one I am.
When Sherman Shaw passed recently, it made me think of the story of how The Tenth Legion really came to the public’s eye.

Saw a quote in North American whitetail from one of its writers that’s always stuck with me. “As hunters, we should be judged more by what we choose not to shoot than by what we do shoot.

“Just Be Still”

"sit still on a tree that's wider than your shoulders."
My grandad killed a lot of deer sitting on a stool. Wearing red flannel long-sleeved shirts, khaki pants, an orange vest/hat, and Lacrosse Grange boots.
He never climbed a tree
