What Do You Call A Turkey Hunting Vacation?

 By Tyler Mieden | PUBLISHED April 25th, 2022 

Taking a week off to hunt deer during the rut is commonly referred to as a rutcation. My rutcations aren't nearly as long as they used to be given a growing family and other responsibilities.

Now that it's turkey season, I started to wonder what it'd be like to take a week off to turkey hunt. That got me to thinking, what is a turkey hunting vacation called? There were a couple ideas that ran through my head, but I posed the question to our community on social media and they came up with some great options including:

• Strutcation
• Turks & Caicos Trip
• Spur-ing Break
• Alturkation With Your Spouse
• Bird Flu
• Thanksgiving
• Bearded Break
• Jakation
• Gobliday
• Spurcation
• Gobcation
• Beak Busting Break
• Gobblerbatical
• Flopcation

Other comments included amazing, glorious, necessary, and "a waste of vacation. Just show up late everyday."

My personal favorites from the list are strutcation, jakation, gobbleratical, and flopcation. If I have to choose, my top choice is strutcation. There's a lot of great options, but which one is your favorite?
