Sounds like her hardheaded husband needs to put a Fastfire on her gun and save the both of them a bunch of head and heartache. laugh



dangitboy, I was putting chitt on guns when you were still crapping in a diaper. I've said I don't like em, not that I haven't tried em.
I've put everything but a kitchen sink on several guns she has had/owned/used. Hardhead still lifts that dang head. I'm thinking duct tape around her head and gunstock MIGHT work....

Problem with her is, like a lot of new turkey hunters these days, is that she has very little to no experience shooting a shotgun on other game. Unlike a lot of us older heads that grew up shooting all manner of stuff with a shotgun and LEARNED to shoot...then started turkey hunting with a lot of shooting experience under our belts.

Not counting eye problems, if a man can't kill birds with a front bead only he needs to learn how to shoot the dang gun.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I believe that fully. I didn't grow up hunting and never used a shotgun much till the last ten years or so.

First bird I killed was with a single bead, all the others I have used a rifle style sights. Missed a bunch. Idealy I think a single bead with a mid bead is best if it shoots straight.


Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

This, Definitely easier alone. But comany from time to time is nice and I'll probably have it more often this year. (my ol man)


Turkeys be damned.
