As for as I'm concerned, camo or not, dosen't matter to me. I started hunting turkeys' with a gun and no camo. As I moved to guns specifically for turkeys, some had a camo forearm and stock, then all camo.

After turkey season ended this past season, I bought a new gun and had several modifications done to it just for turkey hunting. It is a blued gun with stainless steel on it, I put some vinyl camo on the SS part, leaving the blued part and wood as is.

As I'm sure jepco and others will tell you, when turkey hunting, you get that gun up to the shooting position before the turkey comes into view, and don't dare move. If you can see him, he can definitely see you. A good example of how sharp their eyesight is: Just a few weeks ago I was spuirrel hunting and sat down on a log, which was between two trees, with palmetos all around me (great natural blind). I had three mature toms' coming walking up on me, they got within about 20 yards of me, then I had a mosquito geting his second gallon of blood out of my neck and I couldn't take it any more, I moved my head slightly to move the mosquito, the turkeys immediately caught the movement and took off.

To camo or not I think is up to you, some do, some don't.

Good Luck this Turkey season. Oh yeah, stay in touch with this forum for the up coming Spring Turkey Season, it's a blast. I actually like the turkey forum best of all.
