Fall Turkey hunting, yes.
Spring turkey hunting is a different animal, you will be calling the Turkey in. This is a very high skill endeavor and you probably need somebody to teach you. You also need head to toe camo; veil, camo boots, gloves, no hunter orange, because you’ll probably be on the ground and turkeys see color very well. On the plus side they can’t smell. IMO you’re better off dove hunting if you want to switch to mostly birds.

Probably pulling overtime to recommend a course of action in the ME.

‘Teenager’ is a marketing category created by the media, so of course media filters perception of the teenaged years in popular consciousness.
There are definitely people who enjoyed their high school years more than their adult life, because the paradigm of ‘teenager’ as a category that exists creates an impulse in authority structures to incentivize the ‘fun’ parts and not the ‘becoming a grownup’ parts. That’s what this is corresponding to; people remembering their fun as the important part of life, not their responsibilities.
It should be noted that this memory is, in general, rose coloured glasses. ‘Teenager’ is an unnatural category in that it poorly aligns with the telos of these people, hence teens are on average unhappy.

Vietnam was a strategic loss, that’s true. But also the ARVN did stand on its own until political turmoil in the Republic of Vietnam caused coup-proofing shakeup in the army’s leadership post-US withdrawal, leading to a collapse of the front in the face of the north Vietnamese 1975 offensive- the ARVN had been highly successful with 0 direct US assistance for three years at that point. It would be like if Ukraine suddenly fired all its generals and put a rando in charge who proceeded to lose the war in a matter of weeks.
You're plenty young enough. My grandpa hunted into his sixties and only stopped because he had shoulder surgery for something unrelated and never recovered enough to handle the recoil. My hunting club has guys in their seventies, but they get the young guys to haul their carcasses and skin them for them. They are, to be clear, not rabbit hunting.
