shouldnt this be in the "off topic thread?" dont know how you can call that turkey hunting :P

the day i think i need one of them to kill a tom, i will know it's time to hang it up :eek:

Really, so having a Tom running fill bore at you across a field to within feet wouldn't make you a little excited? I guess I would hang it up if I was you. ;)

hunt however you want. i just said that style of "hunting" is not for me.

i prefer to use my skills of calling, woodsmanship, etc, developed over many years of hunting turkeys to kill my toms, rather than relying on the latest gimmick, which could get you shot

and i've shot many toms that came running full bore at me across a field to within feet ... to my calling. thats what gets me excited about turkey hunting, not crawling across a field behind a decoy ;)

Would still take a lot of skill to hunt like this.  And likely calling also.  Don't know why you wouldn't call with this still.  And I wouldn't imagine you would get shot on private land as there wouldnt be anyone else there.  If you thought to use this on public land though... maybe not the blind for you....

That would sure be exciting having those toms run in on top of you, but man there were a lot of really poor quality shots in that video. 

I agree PFUNK some of those jump up and shoot-shots seemed pretty bad. I think you would need to find a way to be ready and either shoot through or around the decoy better. Seemed like a lot of lost birds maybe. :(

I think it looks like loads of fun, but believe me, not every turkey you see will come running right up to you.  I'm sure they rolled tons of footage to get these shots.

We tried a similar product (Heads up decoy) last year and I can attest to the fact that birds did not just coming running right up to us begging to get shot.  We ran off a number of groups of birds doing this and it never produced a shot for us.  I'm sure it will work if you get in the right situation and find birds in the right mood (obviously, based on the videos), but we never encountered that...

Funny and at $3 bills not sure they are going to sell many?  Now they just need to add one of those police drone shotguns and you can hunt from the truck! :D

Um, this is just for fun. Don't need any overly critical feedback of how that's not hunting, wouldn't be legal etc, etc. Lighten up boys. Seems hard to share any fun goof video's or pictures around here without "ruffling some feathers".  :(

That was funny llliniWalli, always cool to see new things no matter if they may work or not. My reply was not to you but about posting fun things. Just some reactions to them.  Thanks for sharing.  :)

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
