I always have turkey calls in my bag even if it is not turkey season. I just like to watch them and practice my calling while on the deer stand. I thinkthis lets the deer know that turkeys are in the area and it must be safe.
Me too. I also cluck a few times when walking to my stands occasionally, as humans and turkeys are the only animals in the woods walking with a bipedal motion. It's the best cover sound you could make.
