Yes, I quit shooting anything that wasn't outside the ears years ago. Also quit shooting jakes, when I called in my first long beard. A total of 1 jake. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a snob and don't look down on people who do take spikes or jakes. It just doesn't do it for me any more. 2 years ago I called in 3 jakes from over 300 yds away, the guy I was hunting with shot one, I didn't realize he had never taken a turkey. He was as happy as if it had a 10" beard and 2" spurs, when I found out it was his first bird I was just as happy also. Not to mention he took it with one of my custom tungsten loads. It was a great day. The only bird taken all weekend by 8-10 hunters.
