My uncle told me that chicken crap on field's has something to do with it, predators, people killing way more than they should, it's not just one thing. I do know that a bobcat will eat every poult in the flock before they move on
Michael if you put a 3 or 4 inch drain pipe in the bottom of the root ball and let it stick up above the ground you can add water and the nutrients to the roots where it needs it. Just a thought.
Your turkey vest is like mine. i justt got my mouth calls from your company they sound good. I also got a Carlson choke tube for my 935 it wasn't to hot but its ok . i would love to have a sling. Munk on a sling.
I killed my first turkey at 15. That was 17 years ago and this spring I will be hunting the same piece of public land I got my first bird on all those years ago.
Turkey hunting in Tennessee I use a glass top scratcher wish could use a mouth call but have a top denture so would blow n then the denture comes loose lol
Waddy here in Tn the TWRA turn rattle snakes loose to reduce the population around highway 109 north.An yes in Bethpage Tn that kinda backs up to the Cumberland river there’s Bald eagles on the roost.My buddy property has went to crap as far as deer and turkeys.We hardly see any anymore!
I live in Pa and seeing the same here. Pre season id know of dozens of toms. Now I'm lucky to find 4 scouting over many miles. Still blessed to tag out every season but its surely sad seeing the decline. Our states aware of the issue and the game commission says it but still is selling bonus tags lol.. good luck on the season and keep the flop flopping!!!!!!!
Love all of your videos. I just started Turkey hunting last year at 45 years old. I’ve have always hunted deer, rabbit, squirrels. Never had anyone to teach me turkey hunting. So I started watching your can’t stop the flop and it got me hooked. I didn’t get one last year but hopefully this year will be the year! Thank you for all you do.
I’ve been deer hunting since i was 17 and I’m 50 now, this year will be my first year turkey hunting. I’m super excited and have been buying a bunch of turkey hunting supplies and watching tons of videos for help. I enjoyed your turkey vest dump, Micheal. Thank you. If I won the sling I’d go with “Papa” on it. Best of luck this season Sir.
It’s awesome that your getting into turkey hunting I am only 25 but I killed my first turkey at 6 years old and now 19 years later I couldn’t decide between April and November if I had to. Best of luck this season
I would have "GOBBLER CHARIOT" since it will be the item carrying many of big toms to their final destination on Earth. That way every time my sons use it when I'm gone they will have good memories and hopefully chuckle at the name. Good luck to everyone this season.
Great video thanks for putting it out and showing us what you will be useing. It really is great seeing you still use Grady shows you don't need the latest gear to kill a bird you just need to use what you got and go have fun. I would put "Cramer" on the sling thanks again best of luck this spring.
Moat can be a bad idea if the ground doesnt drain well enough... You usually want the ball just above grade and then backfill to it.. I dont think you will run into any issues there, but if you had clay soil or clay built up around that for the moat, it could drown them. I think the nesting of turkeys is the biggest issue. And with that, could be habitat. There is a big move in the deer hunting world to improve habitat, and if done right, it will help the turkeys too.
I just figured I better make this post because there is another page on here that’s saying we won the turkey sling. I messaged them being excited and gave them by name and address. So be very careful about that page they are messaging me like crazy wanting a payment. It’s sad because I thought I won.
We’ve got bald eagles on our property and haven’t had any decrease in turkey population over the years. Matter of fact, this year we have more on camera than we’ve ever had.
@@BoneCollectorTube there’s one thing I haven’t done and never seen anyone do and that’s take a metal detector under and around an eagles nest. Ain’t no telling what you’re liable to find. They eat all sorts of things. I would imagine there would be a bird band or two or something along those lines. Just something I’ve always thought about.
I’ve seen a Red tail hawk empty a field of turkeys. When he flew over…all the gobblers jumped and turned their spurs up towards the sky! Crazy. Idk about eagles…but I do know Ben Franklin got it right…turkeys don’t eat road kill!
I know Michael’s editor reads these and not him, but I would come give some free manual labor during the burn day, or right before turkey season. Not looking anything from it but the work and getting to know these guys away from the camera. We used to burn here in eastern NC untill the grandchildren started selling granddaddy’s farms to developers and these new northerners moved down and complained. If he is interested reach out. Not asking for nothing in return just offering free manual labor.
I’ve seen the turkeys up north here taking a dive in southern Michigan because of loss of habitat. A lot of the people from the city are moving out into the country building them million dollar homes buying up the land and let them dogs run and then don’t allow nobody to hunt so the predators take over. The cityfolk move it out into the country which are the same people that we consider tree huggers and bunny huggers, they don’t understand what needs to happen for wildlife to flourish.
@@BoneCollectorTube well if you think about it it’s never been an issue before because the only people that lived out in the country lived along the roadside or out in the open fields where the farmers house would be, now these city people come out to the country and build a house in the middle of the woods right where all these critters wanna live. I have quite a bit of land that I hunt here in Southwest Michigan and two of my good farms where you can see 30 birds a day, now your lucky to see a couple of week and that’s because there’s a house that was built in the middle of the woods.
Love watching ya'lls videos! Ya'll are a trip. So down to earth. Looking forward to turkey season! "Baugher" on sling if lucky enough. Goodluck on your hunts!
Just got into turkey hunting this year and killed my first bird using some of your calling tips. "BLAKE" would match my other sling in the larger size you sell that I'm using now. Perfect fit for my new turkey gun.
What are you talkin' about Waddy ?? some vienna sausages and some mustard !! Woooeee !! Make a Rabbit Slap a Hound Dog , Right in the Mouth !! Yes Sir... lololol...
It always great watching your videos and seeing your kids loving being outside. Not a common site in todays world. “Quinn” would look great on a sling. Thanks for all you do making and putting out content.
Michael I enjoy the videos and your show and seeing you spend time hunting with your dad. I lost mine in 2008 deer camp hasn't been the same since. his nick name was the swede and that is what I'd want on a sling for his gamemaster. 30.06 good luck on the turkey hunt
COWBOY on the sling. My user name, what the wife calls me and hopefully be packing a big old gobbler with some hook SPURS on the other shoulder ! Have a great season Michael

Edwin doin all the shoveling 😆😆
It’s bad in Kentucky to. Here they are do to wet weather but who knows
Michael if you put a 3 or 4 inch drain pipe in the bottom of the root ball and let it stick up above the ground you can add water and the nutrients to the roots where it needs it. Just a thought.
Great idea
I wear the same polo bro
Your turkey vest is like mine. i justt got my mouth calls from your company they sound good. I also got a Carlson choke tube for my 935 it wasn't to hot but its ok . i would love to have a sling. Munk on a sling.
Your boy Whalen gives me a chuckle, you trying to keep him busy. Flop on Brother.
Looks like you have some iron mixed in with that water at the start. Eat some raw local honey for the allergies.
Great snack choices 👍 “Gobblehead”
ROLL TIDE
I killed my first turkey at 15. That was 17 years ago and this spring I will be hunting the same piece of public land I got my first bird on all those years ago.

Are you ever going to design a Bone Collector turkey vest??
Love my sawtooths, and so do the deer!

Yawl need to come to Virginia to do some turkey hunting.

🙌🏼 50 yrs young and a whole lot of hunting left! What’s your favorite piece of gear you’ve picked up so far?
First turkey hunts and harvests are so memorable. Good luck
It’s awesome that your getting into turkey hunting I am only 25 but I killed my first turkey at 6 years old and now 19 years later I couldn’t decide between April and November if I had to. Best of luck this season
How don’t get my hands on one of those sweet slings ?
I'm 66 been turkey hunting since 73...ready for Tomorrow! Good Luck to Y'all! Would love a Turkey Tote !! I'd put Dad's Sling on mine !
Michael, how is T-bone doing? Been praying and thinking about him
I would have "GOBBLER CHARIOT" since it will be the item carrying many of big toms to their final destination on Earth. That way every time my sons use it when I'm gone they will have good memories and hopefully chuckle at the name. Good luck to everyone this season.
Y’all best listen to momma and get that bread and toaster put up or ain’t gonna be no bird hunting haha
Rawbone for the sling! Enjoyed the video and cantstop the flop!
Great video thanks for putting it out and showing us what you will be useing. It really is great seeing you still use Grady shows you don't need the latest gear to kill a bird you just need to use what you got and go have fun. I would put "Cramer" on the sling thanks again best of luck this spring.
I’d put Jones on it

Kiefer pear trees, don't think about it just do it. You'll never regret planting them.
Wear them out Waddy.

We’ve got bald eagles on our property and haven’t had any decrease in turkey population over the years. Matter of fact, this year we have more on camera than we’ve ever had.
That’s awesome! They are definitely apex predators but that doesn’t mean they all like the taste of turkey 🦅

Thanks for all you do to promote hunting and to make hunting shows fun for all of us.
Eagle's will clean all the game and fish out of an area. That's the facts.
Had my first double in bama this past Saturday! Watching bone collector as a youngin made me wanna do it !
🙌 Man this is an awesome comment! Congrats 💪🏼
Dang hogs and coyotes are killing us in NC.
CRAWDADDY
Appreciate what y’all do and praying for Tbone.
Any chance we will see you take a turkey with the Hoyt this year?
I just got some hybrid oak saplings to plant for the deer on my place.They are fast growing and should put on acorns in about 3 or 5 years.
I was also super fortunate to be selected for a 3 day veterans turkey hunt in SE Kansas.
My son would love this for his brand-new turkey gun! He'd put 'Naterbug' on the sling if he won!!
Just would like to know how T- BONE is doing? Don't need the sling.
I’ve seen a Red tail hawk empty a field of turkeys. When he flew over…all the gobblers jumped and turned their spurs up towards the sky! Crazy. Idk about eagles…but I do know Ben Franklin got it right…turkeys don’t eat road kill!
Here in Mississippi the timber company are burning when the hens are on the nest I personally think all states can learn a few things from TEXAS
just wondering how T- Bone is doing...let him know we are continuing to pray for him and his recovery..God bless y'all
Spur hunter...on my new sling plz..
Really like your RUclips stuff keep it up. Hambone for the sling lol.

Smoke city
Just got into turkey hunting this year and killed my first bird using some of your calling tips. "BLAKE" would match my other sling in the larger size you sell that I'm using now. Perfect fit for my new turkey gun.

Michael I enjoy the videos and your show and seeing you spend time hunting with your dad. I lost mine in 2008 deer camp hasn't been the same since. his nick name was the swede and that is what I'd want on a sling for his gamemaster. 30.06 good luck on the turkey hunt
These videos always make me smile. I'd put my blind dog's name on it, Laci.
That's a mighty fine looking sling! "Outfoxed" would work perfect on it!
Moose
Polo for hunting? Lol

I'd call my sling "slayer"
COWBOY on the sling. My user name, what the wife calls me and hopefully be packing a big old gobbler with some hook SPURS on the other shoulder ! Have a great season Michael
