The Amazon basics tripods are super cheap, lightweight, and decent enough for phone or action cam filming. Just might want to dull the bronze finish with some rattle can paint or matte tape

Their Davis yelpers are awesome too, and a very good value. I always recommend them to people who like Davis style yelpers.

Agree with Georgia boy comment up above. Find some signs.

If I think about your specific question, I think I'd say, a winter turkey flock is a a never fail sign... At least you,ve found turkeys, a great number, now keep in mind they will all split up and move to different location for spring nesting, but still, they won't move 50 miles from where you saw them in the winter... Search around there and you should find them.

What type of terrain do you hunt?

Phone camera works pretty good, get a decent tripod and/or mount. GoPro or other action cams are good cheaper alternatives, but the fisheye lens is not the greatest for the application. Small rig and Joby brands make pretty decent inexpensive mounts, fluid heads and tripods. For phone filming, a power bank for charging, handheld remote, and a good fluid head are great to have. I only film for my own enjoyment, leaving my good mirrorless camera at home saves weight and one less expensive thing to worry about.

YouTube TV works well for me. But like everything else, it has went up in price quite a bit since I signed up years ago.

Very good post Davy. Brings out some really hearth felt testimonies, I enjoyed them all.

For me, I'm still in my young days as a hunter, it's still a lot about the killing part. To sum it up, Killing a turkey to me, it's the congratulation or the accomplishement of saying, I did everything right, it worked, I made no mistake, the bird I studied worked up how it should, I placed my set-up right, I read the situation right, everuthing worked right and it worked! Comes with a breath taking amazement and a great feeling of pride... That feeling I know you all know...

But of course, don't get me wrong, I also have some wisdom in me and I also feel all these things that's been stated above.

I can't past on Eggshell testimony, I feel much the same as you... I'd say, i'm you but in your younger years... Part of the process I guess.

Very nice.  That little call has intrigued me for a while.  Never pulled the trigger.
