I finally consoled myself with the thought process of "some of these birds have been pressured enough that they want the hens to come those last steps to them."And then you find one horny enough to be called in and killed....
Ever wonder where all the people came from, and WHY?
Many Covid-related hunters this year. They have nothing else to do. Never turkey hunted before, but what the hey, give it a whirl.
So this is the issue I’m having.... I’m runnin’ & gunnin’ covering ground and I’m able to get on longbeards. Or at least locate them... I run into these 3 issues...1) I try to be very careful cautiously closing the distance. Once I get about 80-100 yards and try to call again, I will get a response but the bird won’t budge. It will just stay there and gobble. Give him the silent treatment but he still won’t move. Which leads me to issue number 22) When I try to reposition on him and set up at a different angle, I notice the bird seems to move further away. It’s almost like it moved the distance I closed. This happens a lot. 3) I’m not fast enough closing the distance on a gobbling bird and it veers off in the wrong direction. If I try to get ahead of him he goes the other way, or vice versa...4) Whats the right way to go after a turkey gobbling on the ridge top? I try to approach him from an angle and try to get set up on the ridge top about 80-120 yards from him, and try to call him in my direction. I’m just gonna say, it hasn’t worked yet!Needs some pointers from the timber turkey hunters.Thanks guys Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
