LEARNING TO TURKEY HUNT / Calling VS Experience/Woodsman...

Last post by GobbleNut - Today at 09:13:27 AM

Another pre-season topic for discussion (mostly for the newer hunters among us):

We tend to discuss turkey calls and calling a great deal. My impression is that some folks might begin to think that calling ability is THE key to turkey hunting success. Now, I tend to agree that the more realistic somebody's calling is, the better. I have concluded over the decades, however, that calling ability is secondary to what we generally classify as "woodsmanship".

To me, that term can best be summed up as knowing what to "say" to a turkey, when to say it, why you are saying it, and where to say it from. Unfortunately for most of us, learning how to pull that off on a somewhat regular basis often requires a learning curve that is only accomplished with significant time spent in the turkey woods...and generally with quite a few failures front-loaded onto that learning curve.

Quite honestly, learning to make all of the sounds a turkey makes with adequate realism with the tools available today is the easy part. That other element of experience and woodsmanship? ...Not so much.

Turkey Hunting Tips ,Strategies & Methods / Re: New Mexico Turkey Hunt Gil...

Last post by GobbleNut - Today at 08:44:54 AM

Here's what I tell people that ask me about hunting the Gila area:
 
It is a giant area with limited access due to large tracts of wilderness and roadless areas. There are turkeys throughout but in scattered flocks with lots of turkey-less space between. The lack of access concentrates hunters along access roads which results in turkeys along those roads often seeing excessive hunting pressure. Finding turkeys away from the roads requires legwork into those wilderness/roadless areas to try to find birds to hunt that are widely scattered, sometimes difficult to find, and in difficult terrain for folks that are not accustomed to that.

Conversely, if you can hit on a spot with turkeys and little or no competition for those birds (good luck with that), you have a good chance of having a great Merriam's turkey hunt in their true native range in some really spectacular country.

Turkey Locator Calls / Re: Peacock call locator

Last post by Will - Today at 08:42:25 AM

Based on your post it appears you are new to the sport of turkey hunting. Welcome aboard and good luck this spring harvesting your first turkey. I haven't heard of to many hunters using a peacock call. Don't discount a good crow call. There are many good call makers on this forum that make a quality crow call. I've had better responses from crow calls than owl calls.
