Knight's style is not quiet like Bob Hood who wrote for the Star Telegram.

Hood would not have been short of ammunition for his firearms.

Hood retired prior to this century.

Never understood why someone would be retired from being paid to hunt/fish and write about it.

I bought a case of 12guage 00Buckshot for $41.

Federal 2 3/4.

I thought I paid too much.

In 2019.

Now I open the safe and fondle it like gold.

If you can see the turkey’s eye, he has already seen YOU.

Was deer hunting near Zebulon Ga.in the late afternoon
when six or seven toms and hens decided to roost in one
of the trees. You never heard such stick breaking and
carrying on in your life! I would’t have missed it for the
world.

I was always glad to see Turkeys working the hill side cause
the deer knew that if they didn’t spook it was safe.

Bob Hood also taught readers how buy a new rifle/shotgun/pistol without your spouse knowing (pre electronic banking).

* Volunteer to grocery shop, write a check for $10 over and piggy bank it.

After enough time, your piggy bank will allow you to buy the firearm you want...tell your wife you always had it and never before brought it out.

I hunt turkey in Hawaii.
They are pretty common here.
No natural predators.
I have a hen that for several years would nest in the lower part of my pasture, till her chicks hatched out, then she’d leave.
Wild turkey is awfully darn tough, slow cooker only.
