What will you do differently this season?

Hunt more by myself, take a nap everyday, and get the wife to mow during gobbler season. 

You have to be careful. New spring grass is fragile and It's not a good idea to cut it before much before June 1st here in NY. After our May turkey season closes is just about right.

Have a longer season which means Kill in multiple states, put some friends on some birds this year. Last year my season was over in 30 min and every time I had plans to take friend something came up and i didn't have the time to hunt other states. Haha more than likely means that it'll be a hard season and I'll eat my tag.

Listen more and call less. These Alabama turkeys get pressured. Going to hunt that different WMA I been thinking about hunting for 2 years.

1. call in my first bird with a trumpet
2. call in my first bird with a scratch box
3. be more patient and let the birds work themselves in
4. try new areas!

Keep Arkansas struttin!

I'm Chomping  at the bit to start scouting. I know its a little early but that's what I want to do differently  this year, scout more I'll probably wait a couple weeks

Just put more days in the woods. Last year working night shift I only put in 3 good days. Screwed up only shot I had too.

I think this year I will try to kill a few of them rather than scare them all off.

This year I won't walk off and leave my gun laying where I shot him, and have to hike a mile back uphill to get it

My turkey hunting properties are at about 2500 feet...  Got some new property a bit lower this year, and will likely hunt the lower property early in the season, and go up higher as the season progresses...

I am going to take my 5 year old daughter with me for the first time this season (she joined me on several duck hunts this season)...  So this will be my first season hunting from a blind and being less mobile for a couple hunts...  I hope to create a situation that she can see through the blind without alerting the birds...

Time constraints generally preclude any degree of scouting, but with my daughter in tow, I am going to make a bit more effort...  Probably take both the little ones out for some pre-season scouting (giving mom the day off)...

Not to mention that having two cute daughters in the truck is a great way to get some sympathy when trying to garner new properties in the area to hunt...

Take more time choosing my set up this year. Last year poor setups cost me some opportunities at birds.

This year I want to find more turkeys. I get a lot of birds in the same areas and that could change at some point. So many private land birds now and nothing on public. I want to find more public land birds and take some pressure off of what little private land areas I have to hunt.

Communicate better with my 6 yr old. 

I did a poor job instructing him and he missed a stud the last morning of the season.  I have had a whole offseason to criticize myself.  Hoping for redemption.  He shot well killing 3 deer and 2 pigs this winter.  As a result of doing so well with scoped rifle, I put a  Bushnell TRS-25 on his mini bantam
