Never heard of "winter" turkey hunting! Spring and Fall but never winter!

WOW, that would be kinda cool to have a late season winter Turkey hunt! Sure wouldn't mind hunting them in the severe cold with snow on the ground..... I have been seeing lots of Turkeys now that there not in season! Go figure![8D] Good luck!

If you (farm) knows where they roost than it should be pretty easy to get in range. The Toms should be bunched up together as should the hens. Calling in the fall (winter) isn't nothing like the spring. They seem to get a def. ear. They like to skirt field edges so I would just sit back in the timber a bit and wait.

If you can get them busted up, calling is more effective come fall/winter. They want to be together. Like MoHo said, if you know where they are, get in tight and see what happens, if you know where they come and go, get between there and if they are out of range, run at them and bust them. Sit and listen for them to call to get back together. There is nothing like being in the middle of a bunch of turkeys who want to get back together. You'll learn more vocalizations than any other time in the woods.

I agree on busting them up! They will call and call to each other until they are back together again! I did this earlier this fall and called a couple in close but no Bowshot!

this would be my advice also
works like a charm in the fall, so i would imagine it would in the winter also
