Default RE: First Time Turkey Hunting

ORIGINAL: KONK

Here's a question for you "Seasoned Turkey Hunters" ....Do turkeys normally roost in the same location each spring? I was walking in the woods doing some after season deer scouting and came acorss a spot where there was turkery droppings all over the place. Did I find a roosting area? As you can tell I am also a beginner. You guys talk about scouting..... What are you looking for while scouting for turkey?
the turkeys around here normally roost in the same area, not necessarily in the same oak tree or river willow. Although, when the yotes start to make their rounds, the obviosuly tend to move, but always find themselves back in the same neighborhood. When I scout though, I am looking for numbers of birds, trails of droppings, any predator tracks, ambush sites, normal wind conditions, and any other human tracks throughout the selected hunting area, food plot, or inhabited landscape.
