1st Time Turkey Hunter
My son have been hunting for 3 years together. primarily deer. We went turkey hunting for the first time last weekend and saw birds but were busted most times. I was hoping to pick the brains of some of you experts.
1. I yelped at day break got a response from far away, but then no response the rest of the morning. I couldn't really tell weather the birds were getting closer or not. in this case should I continue to call or just shut up and wait?
2. The weather herefor tomorrow (Ohio)is supposed to be 35 with snow and rain mixed...should I set up in a field corner, in some oaks or down by a creek flat? or maybe not go at all?...I have never hunted this area before for Turkey but have seen good deer numbers there in the past.
3. Do gobblers answer to a gobble shaker better than with a yelp with a box or slate call? thanks for your time i appreciate it
