Its Glenn's birthday today..........Happy Birthday little brother! I figured out why Glenn's a pretty darn good turkey hunter.....he was born at that time of year when the gobbling is starting to get going good.....something mystical and magical at work there! Cant figure out why he cant catch fish tho!
I remember before Glenn turkey hunted, I practically had to twist his arm to get him to try it. He was a deer hunter and didn't want anything to do with some "dumb, ugly turkey". Well he finally decided to give it a try and got him one on his first season...he has been addicted every since. I would hate to guess the number of birds that have been fooled by the sweet sounds of his calling. I would put him up there with the best.....he definitely has a feel for the little things that make a BIG difference when it comes to hunting turkeys. Now. I taught him everything he knows ( just not everything I know) so no wonder he's got it down! Lol! Seriously, he's one of the best turkey hunters I know, and I'm proud to have him as my little brother.
p.s. he actually is a pretty good fisherman too....usually out fishes me....which isn't saying much tho.....
Happy Birthday Glenn. Just how old are you if you Hubie's little brother?
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Glenn hope you made it a special day!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I just got back from a short camping trip, so this is the first time I've been on here in a week.
ReplyDeleteI will say that what Brian said is true. I was a deer hunter before I was a turkey hunter. Brian, and my oldest brother Mark got me started hunting them longbeards, and I've been hooked ever since. I would now rather turkey hunt than any type of hunting! Brian left out that I not only got me a turkey my first season, but my first time in the woods! Called a longbeard out of a field full of cows and dropped him with my trusty 20 ga mossberg. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was 17 at the time, which makes that 25 years ago...................so for all of the non-math majors, that makes me 42!
Let me also say that I learned from the best. Big brother Brian taught me how to hunt those longbeards a long time ago. He taught me all the little things right from the beginning, so my learning curve was much shorter than most people. I would be the first one to tell you that Brian is the best hunter I know.....period! Nobody pays attention to the small details more than Brian. Many of the things I do today are what Brian taught me many years ago. I consider myself lucky to have a brother like Brian,.........even though he is the ugliest of the three brothers! lol
The birthday thing is true too. I was born in the spring, and I love them turkeys. Brian was born on November 14th, peak of the rut. There has to be something to that!
Anyway, thanks for the well wishes from everyone. As you get older, birthdays are just another day.
.......and I CAN catch fish, .....they just happen to be carp, and I just happen to be catching them with my bowfishing equipment. lol
