| florida turkey hunting guides: The Old Pro Turkey Hunter Gene Nunnery, 2018-10-18 During his life, Gene Nunnery was recognized as a master turkey hunter and an artisan who crafted unique, almost irresistible turkey calls. In The Old Pro Turkey Hunter, the vaunted sportsman shares over fifty years of personal experience in Mississippi and surrounding states, along with the decades-old wisdom of the huntsmen who taught him. Throughout the book, his stories make clear that turkey hunting is more than just killing the bird—it is about matching wits with a wild and savvy adversary. As Nunnery explains, “To me that’s what it’s all about: finding a wise old gobbler who will test your skill as a turkey hunter.” Through his stories, Nunnery reveals that the true reward for successful turkey hunting lies in winning the contest, not necessarily exterminating the foe. Real sportsmen know that every now and then the turkey should and will elude the hunter. As Nunnery looks back on his extensive career, he analyzes vast differences in practice, old and new. The shift, he decides, came during his last twenty years on the hunt, and that difference has only increased in the decades since this book was originally published. Michael O. Giles, Bass Pro staff team member, master turkey hunter, and award-winning outdoors writer and author of Passion of the Wild, writes a new foreword that brings the practice of turkey hunting into the present day. Filled with a tested mixture of common sense and specific examples of how master turkey hunters honor their harvest and heritage, The Old Pro Turkey Hunter is the perfect companion for the novice or the adept. |

| florida turkey hunting guides: America, Wild Turkeys and Mongrel Dogs Kenny Morgan, 2014-11-01 Morgan's humorous and resource-filled collection of essays centers on turkey hunting, wildlife behavior, and growing up in the small Louisiana town of Jackson in the mid-20th century.A mixed breed of a book, it's what you get when you cross the roguish, homespun charm of a master storyteller with the wisdom of a master hunter, turkey caller maker, inventor, naturalist, and teacher-philosopher.With humility and humor the late Kenny Morgan (1946-2011) uses the antics of his lovable, but uncivilized childhood mongrel dog, Buster, as allegory for human nature, with the gentle reminder that how you act matters. Morgan offers a witty examination of simpler times, giving voice to characters and shenanigans of his colorful life, with relevance -- life lessons -- for our time. The book's format pairs lush images of wildlife and American landscapes with Morgan's thoughtful musings on 50+ years of pursuing the wild turkey--and the practice he's learned along the way to live artfully. My intent is to set standards by teaching the artistry of the hunt: practicing cleverness and integrity in the pursuit of wild things, he says.Indeed, the book brims with expert wild turkey-calling and -hunting technique. But its real beauty comes through Morgan's captivating observations of wildlife, told with vivid tales that ensnare hunters and non-hunters alike with fascinating insights, such as how animals communicate--even across species--to look out for one another.Even more, it's about applying principles learned in the wild to cultivate decency with choices we make on the paths of the everyday.Anyone who appreciates a story well-told and compelling art photographs, or someone looking for first-rate tips to call up and bag a gobbler, will find this book a valuable addition to their library, nightstand, or coffee table.America, Wild Turkeys & Mongrel Dogs is a celebration of the joy that is all around us. |

| florida turkey hunting guides: Tenth Legion Tom Kelly, 2021 Tenth Legion has long been considered the greatest - and most hilarious - book on turkey hunting. Yet until now it was only available in a privately published edition. Many people who hunt turkeys do so with an attention to detail, a regard for strategy, tactics, and operations, and a disregard for personal comfort and convenience that ranks second only to war. As for all cultists, it never occurs to them that they may be anachronisms. Supremely unconscious of the rest of the world, blind and deaf to logic and reason, they walk along their different roads in step to the music of their different drums. |

| florida turkey hunting guides: Hunting the Deceitful Turkey Mark Twain, 2015-12-19 Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 - April 21, 1910), better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist. He wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), the latter often called The Great American Novel. Twain grew up in Hannibal, Missouri, which provided the setting for Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer. After an apprenticeship with a printer, he worked as a typesetter and contributed articles to the newspaper of his older brother, Orion Clemens. He later became a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi River before heading west to join Orion in Nevada. He referred humorously to his singular lack of success at mining, turning to journalism for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise. In 1865, his humorous story, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County, was published, based on a story he heard at Angels Hotel in Angels Camp, California, where he had spent some time as a miner. The short story brought international attention, and was even translated into classic Greek. His wit and satire, in prose and in speech, earned praise from critics and peers, and he was a friend to presidents, artists, industrialists, and European royalty. Though Twain earned a great deal of money from his writings and lectures, he invested in ventures that lost a great deal of money, notably the Paige Compositor, a mechanical typesetter, which failed because of its complexity and imprecision. In the wake of these financial setbacks, he filed for protection from his creditors via bankruptcy, and with the help of Henry Huttleston Rogers eventually overcame his financial troubles. Twain chose to pay all his pre-bankruptcy creditors in full, though he had no legal responsibility to do so. Twain was born shortly after a visit by Halley's Comet, and he predicted that he would go out with it, too. He died the day after the comet returned. He was lauded as the greatest American humorist of his age, and William Faulkner called Twain the father of American literature. |
