Hey pse.....what kind of call sequence do you think would work for a new turkey hunter...I have a box call I have been practicing with....thanks bud.
Well, the birds here have been henned up real bad the last few days. I've been making soft and short calling sequences and relying on my decoys to draw in curious birds. Try to set-up in an area that your dekes will be visible for a long distance and try some short cluck/putt sequences. Good luck guys.

If its raining, then gets sunny after, Definatly get out to those fields, been many a times that ive spotted birds out drying off on a sun filled afternoon!
Good tip Al. I saw a ton of birds out in fields driving home today in between rain showers.

Gave it a try this morning for 5 hours....boy I am worn out. I covered alot of ground. I spooked a gobbler out of his roost about 30 mins after sun-up....lessons learned today...I dont know how to call properly, I dont know how to set-up...but I did have a heck of a good time!

Had one gobble at me this morning...was really cool, albeit he was 200 yards away on the other side of a lake. :) I don't have alot of turkey around where I hunt so I have to put in alot of time I suppose to even have one come close to me.

Well, saturday morning me and my friend get up to the spot we were gonna try at around 5:45am. Right off we had 4 gobblers responding from the top of the mountain, only about 150 yards away. Within the next half hour those 4 gobblers grew into 8-10 gobblers all around us. Except the 4 on top of the mountian stayed up their and eventually went over the other side of the mountain and the other gobblers disappeared to one of the tons of hay fields. As we were walking down though we ended up spooking a gobbler off a tree only thing was he was right by a neighborhood. Today i also saw 2 gobblers in full strut across the road from my place. Too bad we cant hunt in the afternoon.[:'(]Gonna try on top of that mountain this weekend as it is quite a hike(5-6 miles) on foot. I will let you guys know how i do.
