If they do I . may get one to help the grandson out if nothing else he would have something to watch. Government making sin legal does not make it right.

My 11 year old got hit in his sleeve as we came over the top of a hill when the guy on the other side of the turkey shot at the turkey. Plus Ihave some hard plastic decoys that look great, but they are a pain to get set up fast and get through the dmwoods with quietly. Especially since the last 4 birds the boys have shot have not been toms coming to the call but making them gobble and us slipping up on them. 13 and 17 yard shots last season doing that. My large ruck with decoys and calls makes it hard to skip through the woods quietly but I managed. Would be nice if the birds would come to the call like they do on TV.

Glad your boy is OK but stalking turkey or sounds is just asking for trouble, as you found out. The electronic motion thing and stalking are both illegal in PA fortunately, same as those reaper fans.

If someone tries it before I come up with one let me know all about it omg that is the best idea I have ever heard The rifle has no will of its own it may be used for evil but there are more good men than evil men and evil will be corrected by good men with rifles.
