Here is my California Fall 2016 Big Bore Airgun Turkey Hunts with the Benjamin Bulldog .357. Hope you guys enjoy it half as much as I did.
Problem you'll have with fullfilling your goal is that airguns aren't legal in Florida for turkey. Crosman's AG hunting chart is highly inaccurate. It erronously states game birds are legal with AGs in Florida and most varmints and hogs are not; both assertions are incorrect. Most varmints may be hunted with airguns in Florida. So can hogs. Game birds and turkeys may not be. Most importantly, that chart says fox squirrels are legal with airguns. That's like nails on a chalkboard. Fox squirrels are highly revered and totally protected in Florida."AirgunMan"Thanks NMshooter for the positive comments I really appreciate it. Sometimes its easy to get frustrated with battle for legitamacy but I feel strongly and I'm super passionate about Airgun Turkey Hunting. My dream is to be able to travel to other states to Airgun Turkey hunt especially states like Florida for Osceolas and Nebraska or somewhere like South Dakota for Merriams. Man that would be awesome to be able to get my Super Slam with an Airgun.
I'm glad you liked the charting in segment. I wanted to show that these rifles are extremely accurate and are capable of ethical clean kills and that the miss wasn't the rifles fault and I wanted to show that Airguns provide a better chance of a true "Clean Kill" or "Clean Miss" opportunity vs other approved weapons so why discriminate against us and then I'm reminded of that word you mentioned, Ignorance, Ahah now I remember why we're getting discriminated against. Thanks for reminding me lol.
I think over time as regular powder burner ammo becomes harder to get and more regulations pop up and population and development expands eating up hunting areas Airgun Hunting will become more and more popular and there will be more opportunities to hunt different species in the future.
Crosman has done a great job promoting AirGun Hunting with the help of Marketing Director and Airgun enthusiast Chip Hunnicutt. Unfortunately Chip has moved on to Arcus Brands in Georgia recently and Crosman is replacing him with a new marketing director this month. Not sure who the replacement is yet but looking forward to them continuing the great work Chip started.
If anyone has the time it's something I would really appreciate and that is letting Crosman know if you think I am doing a good job representing the brand and don't tell them if you think I'm not LOL. Crosman has been really good to me over the last 4 years and any positive feedback would be appreciated. I'm trying to earn another trip back to the SHOT SHOW this year. It was really cool to go last year and shoot the AirBow at Range Day.
