Dirk see my post above about reading comprehension. Its getting easy to spot the stoopids on here, you still wearing a mask? I don't think you write nearly as well as your arrogant butt thinks you do.

I expect the people using TSS will probably buy regular lead shells, not quit hunting. Plus, who the heck would use more than 3-4 a year. It is very little money in the big picture. Minimal revenue change there. And the amount of money that goes into the State DCNR from decoy sales I would bet is statistically nothing. And if folks were not buying the super holo certain death gobbler decoy they would probably be spending that money on the super duper gobbler guaranteed sceaming fire engine hooter. Which might work because my buddy had a bunch of gobblers cut loose last week when a fire truck went by on the highway. I am sure there are plenty of very good hunters who can consistently kill birds without decoys, but for the majority of hunters, especially inexperienced hunters, it is a significant benefit, and we are talking macro, not micro numbers. So sj22, if you aren't using them for the longer range what's the point of TSS. That's the whole reason it was developed are ya just trying to make them even deader. I guess with a wide choke you can get a super dense pattern at non tss turkey ranges but at those ranges lead does a fine job. So what's the point. I expect the point is when ya get one hung up 5-10 yards past where you would be comfortable shooting with lead in the chamber it dies. Like I said, I got no dawg in the hunt, other than an observer, but if the State wanted to reduce the turkey harvest, it would be a very easy simple way to do it. Just like, if the State wanted to reduce deer harvest, it could do away with scopes and harvest would go down. I’ve only killed one turkey in my life with a decoy, just to say I did it. I’m willing to bet my paycheck that more birds are crippled and left to die with ANY type of shot due to poor shot placement, poor patterning shotguns, too far, not getting their head down on the gun, etc; than are killed because TSS gave them the advantage needed on turkeys that couldn’t have been killed with lead.

Some of you have piss poor reading comprehension. I have no dog in this hunt and am not personally for banning anything. So I will go REALLLLLLLYYY SLOWWWWWWWLLLYYY this time. If the State is looking to reduce harvest, which is largely what this thread is about I started the thread homeboy - and I can stone cold guarantee you it’s got no purpose to reduce harvest.

If the State is looking to reduce harvest, which is largely what this thread is about, removing decoys and TSS would do the trick. This is nothing more than a factual statement. Dirk see my post above about reading comprehension. Its getting easy to spot the stoopids on here, you still wearing a mask? Maybe you should explain your logic as to why TSS would reduce harvest, and why you think that is a fact? Keep in mind, most of us you are trying to explain that to have been killing true alabama limits of turkeys with lead shot way before we even knew what tss was. And like I said, I’ve only killed one bird in my life with a decoy just to say I did it. Ban tss tomorrow. Ban decoys tomorrow. I couldn’t care less. I’ll pick up my 12 gauges and keep clicking right along like I never missed a step.
