OFF LIMITS! Shoot a bearded hen with me and that's your last trip with me! Call me old school, call me an asshole, whatever, I don't care, I don't condone shooting hens PERIOD. Unlike some folks, when I started turkey hunting I was hunting birds that God put there, not man. Pretty much everybody nowdays hunts turkeys that have been stocked. When I started there were no turkeys anywhere within 50 miles of me. I had to drive to Catoosa to hunt them and the Catoosa birds were stocked by God, not man. My point being, if you kill the hens you kill the future.

I think that bearded hens help make multiple bearded gobblers.

I have had half a dozen chances to shoot bearded hens over the years. I just never could convince myself to do it. I even decided one year that if I saw one particular hen that had a beard i was going to shoot her. I saw her 3 days in a row and just couldn't pull the trigger on her.
I will go with asshole 
Couldn't resist It is a title you have worn with pride a few times Sometimes people earn the treatment
