LEARNING TO TURKEY HUNT / Re: "Sitting down to a turkey"...Last post by mountainhunter1 - Today at 04:16:08 PMQuote from: chingson on Today at 08:43:14 AMGood morning all, Quote from: chingson on Today at 08:43:14 AMGood morning all, They are not referring to which way their shoulders are pointing (while that is also important at times if the turkey loops around the side). It is all about sitting down where he wants to be. It takes years to know that for most folks, but it sounds like you are getting fairly seasoned and maybe you have a fairly decent grasp on what you are doing. To make the lesson simple enough - always try to have the high ground. If there is even a tiny shoulder or ledge on that ridge that is barely higher than where you are sitting - that is usually where he will wind up because he knows every inch of that ridgeline and wants to get as high as he can and look back down to see the hen. Also much easier to call him up than down even though both can be done. Knowing what is between you and him is also very important. Any obstacle will make him want to hang up or skirt. All of this points to knowing the woods you are hunting and it takes boots on the ground time. #4
Turkey Hunting Tips ,Strategies & Methods / Re: Favorite Vests?Last post by 10th Legionaire - Today at 04:13:47 PMQuote from: frixhunter on February 15, 2026, 09:07:45 PMThe Sitka vest was very disappointing, but the tool belt seems to fit triple the amount of stuff. I have used the Sitka tool belt the last couple years. I like it so much I bought a second because every time I find something I like it gets discontinued #5
General Forum / Re: What do you plan on adding...Last post by 10th Legionaire - Today at 04:07:49 PMWell I unfortunately added a new to me again BPS 10 gauge. There's a backstory here.
Sometime in the late '90's or early '00's my best friend called me and told me that a LGS had bought a Browning collection and that it included a factory BPS turkey gun. I bought it and never hunted it. A couple years later he asked if I'd let his dad borrow it to turkey hunt with so I lent it to him. About a year after they both started leaning on me to sell it so dad could have it. I finally caved in and sold it to my buddy to give to his dad with the stipulation that when he died I get it back. Unfortunately he passed away three weeks ago and my buddy gave me the gun last Saturday. The good thing is he used in to kill several birds. #7

to try later in the season. Being retired now for a few years, I plan on hunting more this year. #8
