Product Review: M.A.D. Max Blind

madmaxweb

Don’t like sitting in a blind but love the cover they provide? Check out the M.A.D. Max Blind, a mobile concealment system.The M.A.D. Max Blind consists of a shooting stick covered with die-cut blind material. You can sit on the ground, place your gun in the sticks and then pull up each fork of the shooting stick, creating a fully extended blind in an X configuration. The internal rods and fabric create a taught, rigid, totally concealing blind. It comes in Mossy Oak camouflage.The blind can be collapsed and taken down in seconds. It’s very light, about 40 inches long and, when collapsed, about the circumference of a pop can. It can be stowed in a turkey vest or carried. When deployed, the blind is 47 inches at its widest point and 35 inches tall.Contact M.A.D. at www.flambeauoutdoors.com/mad]]> http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/product-review/product-review-m-a-d-max-blind/feed 0 Calling All Turkeys South Dakota Merriam's Turkey Hunthttp://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/calling-all-turkeys-south-dakota-merriams-turkey-hunt http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/calling-all-turkeys-south-dakota-merriams-turkey-hunt#comments Fri, 17 May 2013 15:05:11 +0000 Brian Lovett http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/?p=17916 Read]]> ]]> http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/calling-all-turkeys-south-dakota-merriams-turkey-hunt/feed 0 Can Turkey Hunting Make You Go Insane?http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/can-turkey-hunting-make-you-go-insane http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/can-turkey-hunting-make-you-go-insane#comments Mon, 13 May 2013 15:02:53 +0000 Brian Lovett http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/?p=17906

Can Turkey Hunting Make You Go Insane?

Oops

I like Randy (Ticklishtompro) from the Turkey & Turkey Hunting forums. Nice guy. Went hunting with him this past weekend.Thing is, I wish we'd have heard or seen some turkeys. Beautiful woods, sure, but it was deathly quiet that morning, and we couldn't get anything going. Finally, we just gave up and went home.I'm not sure what the deal was. Maybe we just couldn't get close to any. Could we have spooked them on the limb? I suppose. And it was bad weather. That must be it. Rain and wind will shut them up like nothing else. Ah, whatever it was, the day was just unmemorable.Editor's note: This is the T&TH medical staff. Regretfully, we must inform readers that Mr. Lovett is suffering from a combination of sleep deprivation and post-traumatic stress disorder, which has caused temporary amnesia and severe delusions. A source close to Saturday's events has informed us that Mr. Lovett and Mr. Ticklishtompro were within spitting distance of a pepper-hot gobbler that morning. The source further informs us the longbeard gobbled more than 100 times on the limb, continued gobbling well on the ground and strutted his way to within 40 yards, putting on a show worthy of any television program. The source then said that Mr. Lovett deftly flowed his gun with the gobbler and, at the opportune moment, centered 2 ounces of Hevi-13 shot directly in a small maple tree, sending the turkey running and flying somewhere ... probably over Lake Michigan. And, according to the source, Mr. Ticklishtompro recorded these sad events on video, which he might be willing to sell for the right price. Because of the sensitive nature of Mr. Lovett's illness, we have decided to let him continue believing that Saturday was just another uneventful day in the woods. At some point, his feeble brain will right itself, and Mr. Lovett will come to the horrific realization that he probably screwed up the best hunt of spring. Until that time, please bear with Mr. Lovett's hallucinations.At any rate, Randy said we can go again next year. I'll probably take him up on it. Hey, what's the worst that could happen?]]> http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/can-turkey-hunting-make-you-go-insane/feed 1 Turkey & Turkey Hunting's Decision Time With Shane Simpson: Episode 5http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/turkey-turkey-huntings-decision-time-with-shane-simpson-episode-5-2 http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/turkey-scratchings/brian-lovett-blog/turkey-turkey-huntings-decision-time-with-shane-simpson-episode-5-2#comments Thu, 09 May 2013 18:16:17 +0000 Brian Lovett http://www.turkeyandturkeyhunting.com/?p=17903 Read]]> fourth episode's challenge was Michael Walker, who claims a Nebraska hunt with Shane Simpson!

How To Play

Watch each episode of Calling All Turkeys. At some point in the episode, the "Decision Time" logo will appear and viewes will be presented with a few possible decisions to make about the hunt (A, B and/or C). Decide on the one that you think we will also choose or the one you think will provide the best outcome then follow the link on the home page of CallingAllTurkeys.com Viewers will then be redirected to the Turkey & Turkey Hunting website where you will register and make your official decision for the current episode (only one decision allowed per episode and your first decision is your final decision). On the next episode, the "correct" decision be will revealed and no further entries will be accepted for that particular "Decision Time" segment. All correct answers will go into a "virtual hat" from which we will draw a winner. We will draw a new winner each episode. Since there is no way to predict what may have happened if a different decision had been explored, employees with Turkey & Turkey Hunting magazine and CallingAllTurkeys.com will choose which decision is the "correct" decision based on outcome and other factors. Each episode will reveal the previous episode's conclusion and "correct" decision and a new hunt with a new segment of "Decision Time" will be presented until the end of the 2013 spring season (around the end of May). This contest is based on the web based, interactive text version of Turkey & Turkey Hunting's "Decision Time" with Brian Lovett. By participating in this contest, you agree to waive all rights for CallingAllTukeys.com to use your name and likeness in any promotion or advertisment of this contest or any other aspect of CallingAllTurkeys.com web based programming. All decisions, pertaining to the contest, made by the staff of CallingAllTurkeys.com and Turkey & Turkey Hunting magazine, are FINAL.
