New guy here in the turkey forum.Last year was my first year turkey hunting and I had absolutely no succes.Did'nt even have an encounter with any.I had a couple of guys that took me on seperate trips and led me to believe they knewwhat they were doing.They seemed liked they knew aslittle as I did and would occasinally ask mewhat I thought about some of their suggestions.I thought your supposed to be the turkey hunter,I have no idea.I think my chances are better asking questions on this forum and trying on my own.I'd really like to get me a bird this year.
A couple questions to start off with.How would I know a area has turkeys.Is their signs to scout for?I never see any when I'm deer hunting so I don't really know how to pick a spot to hunt.
Secondlly what calls and accesories would be good for a rookie to start off with?I went right before the season started last year and their really was'nt nothing left to pick from.We got a Gander Mtn. this year and the shelves are stocked right now.I want to get my stuff early and start practicing.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
James
