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

Default Field or Fauna?

I'm waiting (VERY impatiently) for opening day.....and I had this question:

I'll be bowhunting, this year.....out of my DB. I have a chance to catch them coming off the roost......either in a field or in the woods. I can set the blind up on a field edge.....and set the deke(s) up in the field (and therefore set the DB up in the woods edge.....OR....I can just set up in the field, altogether.

I know "they" say that the birds don't mind the blind, BUT,......I KNOW which direction they'll be coming in on.....and I can't help but think MORE cover is better.

What do you blind-hunting experts say???

Default RE: Field or Fauna?

I would say place your blind in the woods edge.....especially since you know the direction of the roost. If they get hung up out of range, then consider the alternative.

I believe the birds don't mind the blind, but I feel the more coverage the better....especially when using your bow.
