Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Lacross Alpha Burly Sport. I purchased them for fall deer hunting used them then and used them in spring. Unisulated. Can make your feet sweat but are extremly comfortable and dry. Went turkey hunting in MO ticks were everywhere but on me. Others in my party were covered in them. Think the boots helped. I will never buy any other boots at this time!

Big +1 on the Lacrosse Alpha Burly. I got mine in 800 gram Thinsulate insulation in Realtree Hardwoods. They're not too hot in NY State, and they keep my feet dry.

Another LaCrosse fan here. I have the 800 Gram thinsulate, make my feet sweaat, but not too uncomfortable. The uninsulated ones would probably be better in the spring, but I use mine for deer hunting too.

I like Danner boots, the pair I got was made in the USA and is done right.

You need look no further.....get a pair of LaCrosse Burlys! Best there is! The only boots I've EVER worn turkey hunting are the Burly Classic 18" in olive drab. They're not that expensive either!

And the Burly's don't rub blisters on you like most rubber boots? I walk quite a bit and comfort counts for me.

I may have to try these...
