Misting rain and windy. Going to set a decoy up in a strut zone and call every few minutes. Hoping to call one in for my son.

SBE3 28 here. Using a Jebs Full

1 gobbled one time

Whew it’s humid!! Hope to hear one. It’s 540 and crows are already up….thermacell be on today.

Here. Sure is foggy

Interesting thread! I've been working and just now getting around to reading it.

One thing I have never understood is the term "deer hunting" turkeys. For that matter, what is "deer hunting" deer? I've killed deer on dog drives, slipping through the woods, walking cutover, ground stands, tree stands, and probably some other ways. I don't know which one of those is real deer hunting. I really don't know how to apply any of those to turkey hunting. Would someone explain to me what it means to "deer hunt" a turkey?

If a turkey doesn't gobble, the only way I know to hunt him is by "blind calling." I would define that term as calling when you haven't heard a turkey, and that describes a majority of my hunts. I would much rather hunt a gobbling turkey, but if I go hunting and nothing is gobbling I resort to blind calling. I have killed a lot of turkeys that started gobbling after first hearing me. If I think there is a gobbler in an area, I will stay on a setup a long time. If I don't know if a turkey is around, I'll spend less time per setup and try to cover more ground.
But the one certainty if I am turkey hunting is that I am gonna be calling to a turkey, whether he is talking or not. I don't see much this has to do with deer hunting.

Just pulled up. Hoping the rain holds out. 3 different weather app as giving 3 different hour-by-hour forecasts in terms of rain so it’s a crap shoot. Only heard 1 single gobble all year so hoping to turn it around some today

We got into a field strutted yesterday with a satellite bird, the strutted in the same spot for most of the morning.

We are going to be waiting on them with our sons this morning.

Maybe they will keep their routine and the boys work it out.

Going to be another humid one this morning.


Good luck fellas.

nice ,


im done having any mounted , too old and they just gonna be throwed away when im gone . matter of fact might just kill does from here on out . ive killed my share .

Look great! A few years ago the Wife says why aren't you mounting any deer anymore? Why ya doing all these skull mounts? I says well it's getting expensive, not too mention running out of room, and she looked at me kinda disappointed and i says well do YOU wanna pay for it? That ended that conversation 😄 But seriously I'm thankful to be married to a woman who wants more dead animals in the house lol, i know some poor fellers (some on here) can't get past the Garage with theirs 😂

^^
