Frustration on Barren River Reservoir By JOEL WILSONFor the Daily Times The summer camps are open to all Kentucky students who are in grades 4 through 6 and not older than 13 years. Camps run from Monday through Friday. The camp fee is $215 and includes all meals, lodging, activities and transportation. Last year, 4,300 students attended.
The camps afford an opportunity for students to complete their hunter education certification. All hunters born after January 1, 1975 must carry a valid hunter education certificate course completion card at all times while in the field hunting. To apply to camp, go to https://fw.ky.gov/app/CAintro.aspx. Follow the instructions located there. You may also call 1-800-858-1549 for more information and or to register for camp. Online applicants can save $15 off the registration fee. Summer camps run from June through August. This week from the Department, we learn that as you would guess, turkey is the favorite game meat available in the state. Whether frying, smoking or baking, the possibilities are endless for the turkey hunter with a taste for good eating. But what about all those parts that aren’t edible? Turkey wing feathers make excellent arrow fletches. Many avid bow shooters fletch their own arrows for greater consistency and money savings. You can use turkey spurs to make necklaces, as well as other jewelry and crafts. Cut through the leg bone above and below the spur, leaving about an inch of bone attached. Next, clean the spur and bone cavity. Some people boil spurs to help with the cleaning, and use bleach or peroxide to whiten the bone. You will need a saw to cut through the bone, a knife or steel wool and a rifle-bore brush to clean the spur and bone. Turkey bones are hollow and easy to string onto a necklace. Wing bones can be made into a turkey call. To do this, you will need the radius, ulna and humerus from the turkey’s wing, and the same materials used to make a turkey spur necklace. Cut these bones from the wing and clean them. As with spurs, the bones may be boiled to assist in cleaning and bleached for whitening. Next, cut the knobs from the ends of the bones. The straight pieces of bone are then fitted together to make the call, using the radius for the mouthpiece, ulna for midsection and humerus as an end piece. Use sandpaper to help fit the bones together and then glue them in place.
