Default RE: Turkey Senses?


If he answers, repeat the sequence about every 5 minutes--don' t call too much, remember he thinks you' re a hen just awakening up in a tree. Usually between 30-15 minutes before actual sunrise (this depends greatly on the weather), he' ll fly off his roost and sound off. Answer him with a flydown cackle and the fun will begin.
I' ve greatly oversimplified this aspect. And I mean greatly...

I would suggest a few things...

1) Find somebody else who turkey hunts.

2) Before the season, take your daughter into the woods, at about the time you would hunt, in camo and the whole nine-yards. See how long it takes her to become fidgety and get impatient. This will be a good indication of your " allotted time" with her during the season.

3) Have fun. If you' re not having fun because your sleep-deprived, sleep-in and go out at 10am.
