RE: What is the key to Turkey hunting?
i have hunted a lot of turkeys in the past and every time i bring another hunter out with me i always size up hisexperience as a hunter by one thing. the one true key to turkey hunting in my opinion is movement. everyone under estimates this. watch a good turkey hunter, he won't swivel his head for nothing, use your eyes to look, just cause you heard something doesn't mean you have to look at it. if you have to turn then you will learn the hard way how to do it right. one thing i always have to tell myself is "don't overstep your bounds." meaning don't push too far, you might want to set up under a tree, a turkey has a periscope for a head, you won't see him but he will for shure see you. you will be amazed how far away aturkey will see you when you move your head or peak around a tree. one thing i always see is that newcomers get too comfortable in their blinds, once they hear something the lean forward real quick to see it, that turkey will pick up your movement in a heartbeat and then it is off to the races.
