LEARNING TO TURKEY HUNT / Re: How much pressure is too m...

Last post by nso123 - February 08, 2026, 01:59:04 PM

This is similar to some of the WMA areas I hunt. Fortunately, I have exclusive access to a private tract with good turkey hunting on it, but I like to see new scenery too. The closest WMA to me gets a fair amount of pressure, but I have still managed to kill some good birds off of it. The way I address it is to try and hunt on open dates during the week first. There is just less pressure on the birds during the week. Next, I try to carry a custom call of some sort that I feel they are not hearing much. That slight change in the sound of my call versus calls they have been hearing can really help. Finally, I'm not afraid to have a conversation with the wardens who are assigned to the WMA and ask them where they would hunt if they wanted to kill one. The warden put me on my largest bird to date just based on a friendly conversation. Don't give up on a place that has a good turkey population just because you know they are getting pressured.

Turkey Guns / Re: 12ga A300 setup

Last post by bigwoodstom - February 08, 2026, 01:58:18 PM

Indian Creek choke with Winchester Longbeard number 6's. Get the 3-Inch 1 7/8 ounce loads, should have a good pattern with this set-up. A Red Dot and Meadow Creek rib mount and you will have a killer gun for sure....

I've shot these for years but think they've been discontinued. All I can find now is the 1 3/4 oz load.

Turkey Hunting Tips ,Strategies & Methods / Re: Shoot Your Gun!

Last post by nso123 - February 08, 2026, 01:49:18 PM

This is sage advice for all types of hunting. I am always amazed at how many people go buy a box of ammo for a rifle the night before deer season and hit the woods with it the next day without ever shooting the rifle.  Same thing with shotguns and turkey season. I was hunting deer with an outfitter this past December and they had 3 people miss deer completely at 100 yards or less during the two days I was there.  They decided to implement a policy that requires hunters to shoot a target before they will let them go out to hunt.
