Quote from: redleg06 on March 21, 2013, 08:13:53 AMWould I use the terrain to get in front of them if they wont come to calling? Yep. Did just that twice in the last week while everyone else is leaving the woods without turkey that arent responding much to calling.I dont get the mindset that a better turkey hunter would rather watch one walk away then use the terrain to get in front of one and "bushwhack" him when he walks in to gun range. As opposed to watching him walk away from you while you sit there and call at his tail feathers.... I hate it for ya if you're going to bang your head against that wall but I got no problem using the terrain and making a move to get in front of one if calling isnt getting it done....I'll be toting that non-responsive turkey out while yall boys get on and talk about "call shy" and "henned up".

Get rid of your corn piles, trailcams, and scouting rubs and scrapes-you should only be able to call deer, not ambush them.If I've snuck up close enough to a bird that I can see him on the limb and it's legal shooting hours, it would give me great pleasure to roll him out of the tree.

Quote from: WildTigerTrout on March 21, 2013, 12:59:30 PMI repeat it is ILLEGAL to stalk a gobbler during the spring hunt in Pennsylvania. I will quote the regulation from Pa.'s 2012-13 Hunting and Trapping digest. On page 35 under turkey seasons, bag limits and regulations it says "Statewide. Only turkeys with visible beards are legal. Hunting by CALLING ONLY-NO STALKING- one-half hour before sunrise until noon from April 27 through May 11, and then from one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset from May 13 through May 31. Hunters are asked to be out of the woods by 1pm when closing hours are noon". So you can see if you choose to stalk or try to sneak up on a turkey in Pa. without calling you are breaking the law and subject to arrest. With the high hunting pressure that we have here it is a safety issue plain and simple. In Pa. like I said before the sport is in the calling.
Quote from: CASH on March 21, 2013, 08:11:08 AMCalling a bird in is bushwhacking too. 1. You're camoed head to toe. 2. You're pretending to be a hen. 3. He comes in looking for a hen and gets shot in the face by someone hiding from him. IMO this is one of the most tired questions/arguments in turkey hunting.

Amen brother I hunt out of state and if I'm paying out of state fees to hunt I'm going to use whatever means necessary to kill a bird.
Quote from: GobbleNut on March 28, 2013, 06:35:17 PMI have to agree with turkeybilly on this one. If gobblers did not respond to my calling and come in with all the assorted fanfare, strutting and gobbling, I would never have gotten hooked on hunting them. I will kill them by other legal means (except roost shooting, whether it's legal or not) if I have to and an opportunity presents itself, but the satisfaction for me is never the same as when I call one in.
