John's Journal... Entry 78, Day 5 A Memorable Story from "The Truth About Turkey Hunting" EDITOR'S NOTE: Longtime, avid turkey hunter, Ronnie "Cuz" Strickland of West Point, Mississippi, vice president of Mossy Oak's TV and video production, talks this week about his new turkey-hunting book, "The Truth About Turkey Hunting." Question:
Ronnie tell me about another of your memorable turkey hunts that you've
recorded in your new book, "The Truth About Turkey Hunting." The next morning we went out, the wind was howling. The first place we stopped, Bob left us at the truck and said, "I'm going to go down here and listen to see if there are any lulls in the wind." He came trotting back up the road, motioning us to come on. Sure enough, he'd heard a turkey gobble. We went and sat down, and he sat Lauren right by him. I got the camera running. Bob was scratching leaves and yelped a little. Then I heard this turkey gobble. In five minutes, that bird was standing in front of us strutting. Lauren shot the turkey one time and immediately thought this turkey hunting was the easiest thing she's ever done. So turkey hunting doesn't always work out by the book, but when it does, it's fun. To order Ronnie Strickland's book, "The Truth About Turkey Hunting," which Mossy Oak has published, call (888) MOSSY OAK.
