I'm thinking about it this year. I've never killed a jake, but white meat is getting hard to find around here.

Not true. Jakes are better 👆🏻👆🏻 i have & will continue to shoot a gobbling, strutting jake - esp when they come in with 6-7 other jakes

I had a hen and jake bust me yesterday morning while the bigger bird was just under the hill. Those two no counts ruined that hunt. They got up on my side of the hill where I had been yelping early, when they didn't see anything, the spooked and moved off. They took my bigger "Tom" with them. The hen practically landed in my lap. I saw her glide out of the tree and land. I did enjoy the hunt, I had that hen and jake close, plus two other hens yelping and cackling. After they left, I tried to get in front of them, but I was never able to make connection.

Who uses the word Tom in the south? If I had a dollar for every unhelpful comment you replied in response to my posts I’d have more money. You mind clarifying between a Jake and whatever you call a old/mature turkey or you gonna just continue being an smart Alec. I talked to a guy today that said Jakes fan feathers aren’t all in line so they’ll have 2-4 feathers sticking out further. I’m about to just google it.

Shorter beard(s). Shorter spurs. Not as full of a gobble usually

I talked to a guy today that said Jakes fan feathers aren’t all in line so they’ll have 2-4 feathers sticking out further. I’m about to just google it. Jakes beards are usually short and stubby, just a few inches. Their fans, when fully displayed, are longer in the middle than on the sides. Also spurs are short and stubby if they have any visible ones at all. Some Jake's can gobble like a mature bird but you can often tell the gobbles apart, like they havent quite got the hang of it yet.
