Hello all,
I am interested in turkey hunting, though I know nothing about hunting on land (I get lobsters and such while diving). I have a New England Firearms Pardner 20 gauge.
Questions:
1.Is this gun appropriate for turkey?
2. I am on a very tight budget. What is the bare minimum equipment I would need? What kind of budget am I looking at to get started? I already have a gun, ammo, and gun club membership, but nothing else. I would like to have gear that would give me a reasonable shot at being successful, but as I say, I am counting every penny.
3. Are there any books or resources that would be helpful to a beginner like me?
4. Is turkey a good animal to start with? My main goals are to have fun hunting and cooking what I hunt, and also to start to reassess/change how much factory farm meat I eat.
Thanks!
