I understand that shooting turkeys out of season is illegal but is it unethical. I have seen so many damn turkeys over the past few weeks while deer hunting and have really been struggling not to take a gobbler. Breeding doesnt occur for another few months so I dont know from an ethical prospect what I would being doing wrong. Would appreciate thoughts.

Same could be said of most species.

Don't do it.

Funny you bring it up, I watched two fly down this morning and glassed them for prolly 15mins and got to thinking how easy it would be to shoot them. I also thought of a scale of ranking the most repulsive acts
Not in order but somewhat worst to least worse
Shooting a Turkey with a rifle.
Parking in a handicap when not handicapped
Stepping on the skull of a puppy with your boot heel
Leaving the buggy in the parking lot at the grocery

It was legal in MS in the 80s to shoot them with a rifle. 17 year old me was hell on em on the tall pine tree ridge. Whacked several.
It’s overrated. The thrill is calling them in and the whole game of the chase.

While predation and lack of habitat get most of the blame for low turkey numbers, the fact of the matter is lots of them die at the hands of deer hunters each season.

Talked to a Game warden at Thanksgiving, and he was telling me about arresting an guy that killed a Turkey, he said for Thanksgiving dinner, which we have no fall season… Guy said he thought it is what he was supposed to do for Thanksgiving…. But, he was arrested for the same offense, 10 years prior, so, he knew better…..

Yea this cuck bitched about people catching fish with modern technology LEGALLY, but has his little pee pee hole moving about fitfully because turkeys are around his deer hunts. Absolutely a loser of the lowest order.

You are a grade A moron. The two have nothing to do with each other. I’m seeing a bunch of Turkey while I’m hunting, I still have to put out decoys, bait it in, and make a shot. Catching fish on livescope is like playing a video game where people literally set the hook based off of what they see on the screen. Zero sport, zero class, I will have nothing to do with your video games. Go to another board with your nonsense.

It's an act. The only way it isn't is if he has a severe learning disability. The account should really be banned. Not one helpful post in the account history.

I prefer bald eagles
Much more tender than wild turkey.

Make sure if you shoot a turkey out of season you post a picture of you with the turkey on FaceBook, Instagram, Outdoor board, and any other social media you have.

Also caption the pic what day you shot it......

Why would we? I am a reasonable person who contributes positivity to the board and you're a moron troll with zero self-awareness. You also lied about responding to me
