The dad/grand-dad/uncle would better serve the kid by making sure he
knows how to read and how to otherwise prepare himself intellectually
for this unbrave new world. If you want food, you can go to Giant or
Safeware.


.....and get a turkey pumped full of antibiotics, a turkey that for reasons
nobody understands, has been bred and fed to produce a huge chunk of dried
out white meat. And, when they're killed, it's done in a way that's no more
or less humane than a hunted bird. I got my turkey in November from a local
farm. I asked the guy how they were killed. He said "You don't wanna know,
and we do it the best way possible".


I have gone turkey hunting many times and it is a
real challenge. Turkeys can see in full color like a human and their

sight is
50 times more sharper than ours. In other words, a turkey can see you

blink
your eyes from 200 yards away!


So?


So, he just deflated the kneejerk nonsense about how the odds are stacked in
the hunter's favor when turkey hunting.
