From Harpers Ferry, WV, I've decided to start turkey hunting @ 67 yrs young. A long story I will cut to the chase, but avid deer hunter 40+ yrs ago, but never turkey hunted. I wanted to, but didn't have the opportunity. I stopped hunting 40 yrs ago, and started deer hunting again this past Dec. I'm a 2x cancer survivor, and still have leukemia, but the Lord has given me the strength to do what I always loved, hunting, and preaching the Word of God.
I want to learn from you guys and get in the woods this spring. I just got an old (good shape) Iver Johnson 12ga 32", and today I ordered some mouth calls from Hook's (Alpha pack for beginners, and Executioner 2). I know I need a lot to learn and practice with these calls. I'll have an old 870 Lohman box caller in a couple weeks. Have some good public & private land to hunt around me.
I appreciate the opportunity to be here, and to learn from your experience that I lost out on. Please forgive my stupid questions, as I get started. I have a lot of ground to make up, and appreciate your help. Thank you

Welcome to OG great to have you. Bueatuful country out your way, been through your state a few times and was going to go mountain biking there before my car accident. Also went there to so some preaching a few years ago, I believe it was called Fire on the Mountain Camp but am not quite sure of the name. Good old fashioned KJV Independent Baptist preaching. I really enjoyed it.

Welcome!
I started Turkey hunting later in life as well. I hunted just about everything and a friend never understood why Turkeys wasn’t on the list. Said I should try it. He took me out and it’s been an addiction ever since.
Oh and KUDOS on being a cancer survivor. I admire your courage!
