Mitch Moreland kills many things- turkeys, deer, opponents’ playoff hopes- so when a P1 sent me a link to an account of Mitch mowing down a nice Tom, I just had to hunker down to watch a fresh batch of hunting porn. Here you go, PETA. I hope you like Chris Knight music. It softens the thing.

I understand hunting deer, which isn’t sold in most stores. But turkeys? Can’t we just let Butterball take care of that for us?
butterball turkeys are tortured their whole life. They never see the sun or feel the grass under their feet. Mitch Moreland killed a free turkey, you eat slave turkeys. Mitch Moreland wins.
I understand the camouflage, but had I not just witnessed it, I would have thought that singing and playing guitar would scare off a turkey not draw him in. Learned something new today.
not impressed
I don’t think its wrong to hunt I just have to kinda agree with PETAlover on this one. Mitch is a ball player which means hes probably got a strong arm. Why not try to take it down with a rock or something?
There you go, genius.
Agree with PETA lover and then suggest animal death by the unreliable method of blunt force trama using a confederate rock as a missile.
I don’t get the thrill. Appeared that if Mitch had just been a little more patient the damn thing would have walked right up to him and Mitch could have strangled it. How far away was that bird? 25 feet?
@James Williams – Quit being a douche. Real men hunt. They hunt animals, people, money, etc. Have you ever eaten a wild turkey? On my hunting land – they’re over-populated. I prob see 50-200 per season, and Butterball never comes around to harvest them.
@Gordo – I dedicate Mitch’s turkey to George’s brown gerbil crust.
Dude, I was cracking wise. There’s a lot of that here.
I’ll be your Hucklebutterball…
Shame on you big meanies! Don’t you know turkeys are on the endangered species list??
The camera guy sucked with the focus
I’m surprised the turkey came up with the guitar music playing. Seemed to work better than the turkey calls I use.
thank you for this premium content, which takes my mind off the inanity of the Birthers. Good f-in God. The remarkable foresight of Obama’s parents to have placed a birth announcement in the Honolulu paper all the way from Kenya. Roll the credits — We’re done here.
Your reference to this seemingly unrelated topic makes me thin you are as obsessed with birthers as the birthers are obsessed with Obama’s birth certificate. Perhaps both of you should find other things to think about. It’s healthier that way.
Ha Ha – no one here actually knows what real men feel when real men hunt – real men hunt when they get hungry – they don’t stand around and show off the kill, they butcher it as quickly as they can and run off to the campsite, because there are a lot of hungry creatures out there much bigger than you – and they will take your kill if they can – and kill and eat you in the process.
No, our “real men” are a product of our society – which allows us the comfort of hunting without consequences – yes, real men do hunt, that’s what we do – we should feel a thrill at the kill – but now we hunt without consequences – without humility – without the knowledge that we can hunt 100 nights, and only kill 10 of those nights – and the rest of the time, we go home hungry – and our children go hungry.
We have taken the our heritage of “hunting” and turned it into an ideal – most hunters spend their lives in hunger – hunting is a lousy way of making a living – only the not-hunting things that we do, allows us to maximize and revel in the “thrill” – whether you are hunting game, money, women, etc….
Ha Ha – only caught a little bit of the violent video game discussion this morning – something about a German postal workers game – and everyone was getting all upset about it –
Really, we’ve had soccer hooligans running around for how long now? 30 or 40 years – before anyone had ever heard of video games, spreading mayhem – but now we get upset at video games. What video games did they watch?
We’ve had movies like the Evil Dead out for 30 years, which did much worse than any video game I’ve ever seen – yet we get upset at video games.
Really? I call BS on it – we all do not f’ing know what causes us to kill – we pretend that we know – we latch onto some simple reason because we are desperate and scared s’less that we don’t really know – but it is all BS – what we know is all BS – video games are disturbing? don’t worry about it – because chances are, video games have no more to do with causing violence than does the f’ing man on the moon. We don’t f’ing know!
We get wrapped up with these petty little reasons, just to hide the fact that we all really have no f’ing clue about how to deal with this problem.
Let’s look at the movies. Evil Dead’s runtime is 87 minutes. Not alot of replay value for the average consumer. GTA 3′s (2001) playtime to complete the game can be over 50 hours – not to mention the open environment mayhem you can cause without even staying on the game track. It’s not the violence alone – it’s the prolonged, immersive violence that creates the issue. Couple this with a dark room and isolation from family and friends while engaging in these games and it does affect the mind’s perception of reality. Now add human voices over networks and you’re killing not just realistically rendered avatars, but realistically rendered avatars with human personalities.
I bring up GTA 3 because I played it far too much and it did affect my perception of objects in the real world. I didn’t act upon them, but the thoughts were reactionary and a bit funny. But it did make me think about how those thoughts might be processed by adolescent minds. Oh and I was 26 at the time! I have multiple degrees (for what it’s worth).
Has violence always been around? Yes. So has cancer. But cigarettes can still manage to cause cancer in otherwise healthy adults. I’m glad that you think video games causing violence is BS – we don’t have to worry about you. But can you say the same about your children? Or mine?
Baby arm.
well. if you read the first three paragraphs you will read some dirty words. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=AgeXTCkrYqfexzc2EFEiYQE5nYcB?slug=jp-passan_manny_ramirez_retires_rays_steroids_040811
That’s hunting? First off he paid a guide service. What kind of BS hunting is that? Then the poor unknowing turkey walked right up to him. That’s a pathetic excuse for hunting.
He didn’t pay anything. That was a commercial for the guide service.
Whoooooo! Hells yeah bitches!!!!
I’m a big fan of Cable “the host”…. That dude has turned a hobby into a job…. Great video and great radio show….

So why do you feel guilty, Gordon? Your guilt is obvious in your apologetic post. Is your “liberal” skirt showing, faggot? Have you not murdered enough animals to be worthy of “hunter manliness” yet?
I loved seeing him blow that turkey the damn away
Is this what happened to 8-Ball Greggo?

Speaking of killing animals, you hunters out there should take this quiz: How Many Baboons Could You Take In A Fight (Armed Only With A Giant Dildo) http://theoatmeal.com/quiz/baboon_dildo
I have hunted in that same state park. It seems a lot more illegal when Mitch Moreland hunts there.
What a bunch of whiny tree-huggers. I wish I was friends with Mitch so we could blow some more animals the damn away.
Gordon- you aske me once how I got the nickname FRIZCOCK…… Well, the guide in this video, Jeff Elder, gave me that name while on a duck hunt in weatherford. Great outfitter out there!!
