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 Is there a way to tag team two turkeys

A friend and I was hunting on Friday. Three gobblers came in. We was trying to sync our shots so both would get his gobbler, unfortanely, it didn't work out due to the big monster two beard in the back got nervous. Is there a way you guys might have worked this so both got a shot? Or should we be happy that one of us got a decent bird?

IMO, Determine which of you is the primary shooter BEFORE you sit down to call. PUT THE FIRST ONE ON THE GROUND and take your chances on getting the second one. If the first shooter will sit tight, there is a pretty good chance of getting that second shot before the other bird figures out what just happenned and splits.

Thanks barefoot. We tried that with three big boys last week. My buddy could have shot the first one, but waited for the second one to come in view, but the last biggest tom turned in the woods, so the other two followed suit, and I had no choice but to shoot the first one. I felt bad for my buddy, since he passed on the first one so I could have a shot. I guess when it comes to hunting, your plan settle works out like you plan.

Here's what my cousin (BuckoDuck) and I do:
[ul][*] First off, sit close enough togther so you can whisper to each other. It doesn't bother the birds if done silently enough. We've communicated this way with hens in range and they never knew we were near.[*] Like Barefoot said, decide beforehand who is the primary shooter.[*] When you get the opportunity to "double up" sync your shots by counting DOWN, not up. Like this: three-two-one-BOOM. If you say count to three and shoot, in the heat of the moment someone may start thinking, "do we shoot on three or go 1-2-3-boom?" Practice it with unloaded guns in camp. Listen to the click of the firing pin and see how well you do.
[/ul]

It DOES work.
