FULLY
IDENTIFY YOUR TARGET!! ALWAYS THINK SAFETY FIRST!!!!
Find a tupperware dish &
lid that fits your slate calls and glass calls.
Then prepare your calls (scratch pad, glass
condition, sandpaper aluminum) for the hunt
and put them in the tupperware. Then when you
need em, you don't have to look for your call
conditioning equip, just open and call! They
also keep wood pot calls from absorbing moisture
in foul weather.
As said before PATIENCE X 10.
Keep your calling soft and low
when the birds begin to get close.
Keep your calling to a minimum.
A gobbler is like a satellite in the sky, once
he's responded to you, he has your GPS Coordinates
and knows exactly what tree your sitting against.
Don't be afraid to make a bold
move to get into position to kill a gobber.
Turkeys make noise walking in the woods, don't
be afraid to make a little noise in moving.
Sometimes that stimulates the bird into coming
in. Sometimes your moving makes him think the
hen is closer and gets him looking closer.
HANG IN THERE TIME WISE. If
you have to be done hunting at noon, don't give
up at 11:30, it can all happen in 10 minutes,
so keep plugging and giving it your all!
Don't roll over and go back
to sleep, cause if you do, I'll kill your bird,
cause I'm getting up every day!
If its raining hard when you
get up, go anyway, if it lets up or quits, thats
the time to be there, the birds are usually
very active and willing then.
Get yourself a Nif-T-Seat, they
are the most comfortable and versatile seat
for turkey hunting I have ever used and I've
used em all.
And Lastly, TAKE A KID, WOMAN,
or someone NEW turkey hunting this spring and
get em hooked.
