Kelton started fishing with rigrunner and his dad when he was 3. Sometimes he would go to sleep in the bottom of the boat after midnight but he always was ready to go again. Kelton shot his first deer when he was 7. Not that I am bragging. Did not know you could buy a lifetime license...thanks for the info.

It's the same way around here in the Texas panhandle. Hunting is all leased up by the BIG money guys. We have a 60 day gun season, with a limit of 4 does and 1 buck.

I started turkey hunting in the late '60s, when no one was really interested in them. I can remember the days of getting hunting permission just by knocking on the ranchers door. Most were glad to get rid of some of them.

Not that way nowadays, but I don't mind giving the ranchers and farmers something for the use of their land. For the little guy, crops and livestock don't have the profit margin they once had.

Could'nt agree more with that statement.

Teach a boy to hunt, and you'll never have to go looking for him.

Nothing better than seein' a youngun' harvest a fine gobbler.

GMAN - Amen to that brotha. A warm calm Spring morning in Eastern Oklahoma with the dogwoods in full bloom and gobblers a gobblin. AAAAAAHHHH heaven. Let's not discuss the fact the ticks are out as wellas the copperheads

That is J.T. Jr., his first bird and on public land at Lexington at that. Both of us LOVE turkey hunting and about an hour after that pic was taken and the bird checked in we had our crappie rods in hand. Love the spring.
