Hunting Style Poll

Really not a run and gunner, or a sit in one spot guy, so I'll say a slow version of 1 and 2.

Same here.  If I was on a out of state hunt though and limited on time I would no doubt run and gun.  I dont do that here though cause I know where the turkeys are and am fortunate enough to be able to hunt a lot.  I treat it like deer hunting in a way.  You're not going to keep walking around an area and spreading your scent and bumping the deer if you know they are there are ya?  Same thing with turkeys.  I know they are there so I'm not going to start walking around and calling trying to get one going.  Been a lot of days I've never even got a call out.  Theres always tomorrow and the less they know they are being hunted the better off I am

Mostly set around fields that thy come in. But if hear one gobbling I'll go to him..

I've bushwacked a few but I voted #1 and #2.  One of these is usually how I fill a tag.

I run and gun a little more than I should.  I am going to try to slow down a bit this year.  Kinda screwed myself a few times last year.

I didnt read all the other replies....


- If I know the area a little bit and have a good idea of the turkey's patterns then I might be inclined to sit and call for a while, even if I dont hear anything.

-If its a new area and I havent been able to scout much beforehand, I'm probably going to be doing alot more walking until I strike one up or run across a promising looking spot with some good turkey sign.

limb lifting is harder than you think

x2, It also depends on the size of the property I'm hunting.

I choose run and gun thats what i do most but i like to sit down and callem and then i like to bushwhackem to.

I'm like you OLE RASPY I do whatever it takes. If they won't come to me I go to them. That's why it's called turkey hunting!

I voted for 1,2, & 3  it depends on what it takes to kill the bird.  If you think about it run and gun and bushwacking are close to the same. When I run and gun I will sneak around, up, over or through what I need to in order to get a better position on the bird. Bushwacking can show knowledge of the birds and how they use the land. I use it late in the season. My love is run and gun.

Sittin inside the Double Bull with the decoys out. I used to be a runner/gunner but my success rate dramatically increased when I started bowhunting and learned some patience.

I guess I would be a bushwhacker or sit in my blind and call more than anything still trying to learn and I just don't fill I could run and gun yet and I hunt more state land so safety is number one on my mind.

Run and Gun for me.

Mostly run and gun but will spend time working one as long as he seems interested. I won't leave one gobbling if I can help it. I would rather bump one than leave one gobbling.
