It looks like you got alot of great advise. If you are hunting private land the landowner can be a big help. He made my first turkey easier than it should be. It takes a little time, but once you have the property and turkeys figured out it gets a little easier. Also, if you don't get one right away after they fly down don't give up. I've shot most of my birds mid morning after the hens go to there nest and toms are on there own. One last thing don't spend money on those fancy tom decoys (not yet anyway) get your first younger tom out of the way then go for the big boss tom if you want. It seems some of the younger toms will hang up if they see the tom decoy. Just my 02. Good luck this spring!!!
